Why the name Portico? Some of the first followers of Jesus gathered in the portico of Solomon, who was one of the ancient Jewish kings. A Portico is a fancy name for a covered porch supported by columns. In ancient Greece and Rome they served as entry ways into buildings and temples. They had no walls and often became places of gathering and thoughtful conversation about life, spirituality and the way of things. We want Portico Church to be a place where many such conversations like this take place.

What can you expect if you come? We have about an hour long worship gathering with good music, a relevant message based on the Bible, and a number of creative elements. There’s a great program for K-5th grade kids, childcare for infants, toddlers and pre-school children. Dress is pretty casual, so just dress comfortably.

Be sure to stick around after the worship gathering. We have a time for people to connect and get to know one another over coffee and snacks. We also have a special gift for new visitors!
