Distinctive and Covenant of the Portland Area Seventh Day Baptist Church
Seventh Day Baptist Distinctives

Every member of the church has the right to participate in the decision making process of the church. So why are Seventh Day Baptists different? Seventh Day Baptists observe the Biblical seventh day Sabbath, the day established and blessed by God at earth's creation.
