Mission Portland has been recognized by the following:

	Dr. Joe Aldrich, Former President of Multnomah Bible College & Biblical Seminary writes "Aim at nothing and you'll hit every time!  With Portland in their sights, believers are coming together to multiply their impact.  Mission Portland serves the city and its church with great impetus and effectiveness."
	Rev. Terry Dirks, Former Director of International Renewal Ministries wrote "For far too long the Church has been characterized by disunity, division, competition and distrust.  Finally, after much prayer, we are beginning to see the blessings which accompany organic unity.  As an expression of that unity, we are discovering how to communicate, cooperate and co-labor as members of one Body of Christ in a specific geographical area.  Mission Portland is the networking, serving avenue which God is using to help us work together toward our common goals."
	Pastor Gil Harder, Crossroads Bible Church writes "Mission Portland has been a servant, supporting what the Spirit of God is doing among local churches.  Their sole purpose is to encourage local pastors by facilitating our dreams and helping us to see that we are part of something much bigger than our individual ministries.  They help us 'see the mountain-top.'"
	Dr. Tom Phillips, President of International Students Inc. writes "Throughout my work in North America, I have encountered one unique spiritual organism that is fulfilling John 17 in terms of unity of the Church of ministry in any city - Mission Portland.  Mission Portland is a visionary tool that God is using to coordinate over 34 different networks so that the needs of the Greater Portland / Vancouver area can be addressed by all the churches.  In terms of stewardship and production, it is excellent.  Mission Portland majors on evangelism, but also addresses felt needs in the areas of social concerns and discipleship.  I highly recommend Mission Portland as an avenue for fulfilling the Great Commission and addressing the need for justice through the Christian community."
