MCC of the Gentle Shepherd

History of MCC of the Gentle Shepherd

On Oct. 6, 1968, The Rev. Troy Perry conducted the first Metropolitan Community Church worship service in Southern California. Since that day, MCC has grown into a global movement proclaiming the Good News of God’s love for all people.

Today, as self-aware and self-affirming Christians, we reclaim the fullness of our humanity, including our spirituality. We find great truths in the religious tradition, and we find that our encounter with God is transformational and healing. Gentle Shepherd is proud to be a Metropolitan Community Church.

Join us Sunday afternoons at 11 a.m. and 12:15 p.m. to renew your spirit.

We meet at Vancouver Heights United Methodist Church at 11 a.m. and 12:15 p.m for Singspiration and 12:30 p.m. for the interfaith service. The church's location is 5701 MacArthur Blvd. Vancouver, WA 98661.
