We support our northwest association of churches, here’s the mission statement: “We envision a covenant community of churches committed to the glory of God, centered on the gospel, changing our communities by being doctrinally sound, missionally driven, and culturally sensitive - which includes culturally appropriate evangelism, leaders mentoring the next generation of leaders, and churches planting churches through Great Commandment love, Great Commission purpose, and Great Confession dependency.”

The Door Church was planted in 2011 to engage with a large community south of Sunriver that didn’t have a strong gospel presence. In 2019 they helped to revitalize a church in La Pine and now have two locations. For several years, The Door has also operated La Pine Warming Center to provide the homeless a warm meal, showers and a warm place to sleep in the winter months. Their desire is to continue to expand God’s kingdom by either finding more areas that need a gospel presence or to come alongside churches who are struggling and need help. Last year they also launched a ministry to encourage pastors called The Spurgeon Legacy that has free conferences twice a year.. 

More info coming soon, but for now: Austin is an in-residence planter at Grace Bend who will be planting in the next few years, we support him finacially and give him opportunity to preach occasionally.
