| Our Mission
Menucha is a sacred sanctuary held in stewardship as an ecumenical, community-based mission of First Presbyterian Church - Portland, Oregon.
Our mission is to offer the finest retreat and conference center experience possible by providing opportunities for reflection, spiritual discovery, renewal, education and enrichment for individuals, families and communities.
Our Vision
Menucha offers guests “the gift of contentment” -- the comfort of needs well met and the freedom to engage in purposeful work. Purposeful work is work for which people have a passionate intention, but which daily demands may keep us from. Menucha is a chance to return to what matters.
- Community-building
- Cultural and artistic creation
- Advancement of personal and organizational possibilities
- Reflection and renewal
- Pilgrimage
Laughter… shouts of encouragement… soaring moments of epiphany…through God's grace, all in a day’s work.
Use Policy
We serve groups whose purposes are compatible with a Christian world-view. So long as they meet that standard we do not discriminate on the basis of creed, race, age, sex, color, religion, sexual preference, or national origin. Personal retreats and family reunions are also welcomed. We do not rent our facilities for weddings. Pets must be left at home. Animals are not permitted on the grounds except for service dogs assisting visual, hearing or mobility impaired guests (certificate required).
