United Church of Christ History
First Congregational Church of Oswego was founded in 1888 after John C. Tullinger, owner of Oswego township, deeded two lots of land to Rev. George Atkinson, Superintendent of Congregational Missions in Oregon. The first church building was erected in 1891 at the corner of Fourth and D Streets in the First Addition neighborhood.
By 1959 the congregation had outgrown its facilities, and the current church building was erected on Country Club Road. In 1957, with the merger that created the United Church of Christ, the congregation changed its name to Lake Oswego United Church of Christ, Congregational.
Over the years, Lake Oswego UCC has remained an important institution in the local community, housing the Lake Oswego Transitional Shelter Ministry, hosting many twelve-step groups, promoting responsible land use, and providing a spiritual home to many residents. Lake Oswego UCC looks forward to continuing this legacy in the years ahead.

With us night and morning
By gracious powers so wonderfully sheltered, and confidently waiting come what may, we know that God is with us night and morning, and never fails to greet us each new day. Yet is this heart by its old foe tormented, still evil days bring burdens hard to bear; Oh, give our frightened souls the sure salvation for which, O Lord, You taught us to prepare. And when this cup You give is filled to brimming with bitter suffering, hard to understand, we take it thankfully and without trembling, out of so good and so beloved a hand. Yet when again in this same world You give us the joy we had, the brightness of Your Sun, we shall remember all the days we lived through, and our whole life shall then be Yours alone.
