Driving Directions

 

From East

Take the Johnson Creek Blvd exit (Exit 16) from I-205, and go west on Johnson Creek. Follow it west all the way to the stoplight at SE 45th Place, where you have to choose to go left or right. Turn left and keep following Johnson Creek Blvd as it winds along, going straight through two stop signs. The next stop sign is at 32nd Avenue, where you will see a Mini-Mart convenience store on your left. At that stop sign you need to turn right, which will take you down the hill. This will lead you onto an overpass which crosses over SE McLoughlin Blvd. Take the overpass and continue westbound into the Sellwood district on Tacoma Street. When you reach 11th Avenue turn right and you will be directly in front of the church on the corner of SE 11th & Tacoma. If street side parking is already full, the church has a graveled parking lot on the Tacoma side of the church, right across from the New Seasons Market.

Coming south through the city on I-5 you will be going over the bottom deck of the Marquam Bridge. As you cross the bridge stay in the right lane which will head you south toward Salem.
