 Kenilworth
Presbyterian Church is in the heart of the Creston Kenilworth
Neighborhood. Our congregation was built into the
DNA of the neighborhood when in 1894, the developers of the
Kenilworth neighborhood offered property to the Presbyterian
Church. See our history for more information. The Congregation participates in the Creston-Kenilworth Neighborhood
Association and the building is used and available for community
events.

The art work on our home page is by Christopher Bibby. The
oil painting is a joyous rendition, a “bird’s eye view,” of
Kenilworth Church and done in Christopher's unique style. Bibby
says his work "represents a new era, a new time, a fresh
beginning in the life of Kenilworth; the dawning of a new day."
It was presented to the congregation in 2008, following our
Centennial celebrations. Bibby is a Portland artist. You
are invited to learn more about him and see his art at his website
which is: www.iambibby.com
