Staub Memorial Congregational Church in 2011

Staub Memorial Congregational Church, also known as Community Bible Fellowship and Sunnyside Congregational Church, is a church located in southeast Portland, Oregon.[1]

In 2011, Mars Hill Church bought the building and announced it would start a Portland congregation there. Controversy ensued due to perceptions that the church may be at odds with Portland's gay community.[2][3]
