About Us

Rainier Avenue Church (RAC), located just south of Columbia City in the Rainier Valley, works to bring wholeness in Jesus Christ to people across racial, cultural, and socio-economic lines. RAC is an anchor church in the community through its collaborations with local organizations such as Urban Impact, Coalition for Community Development and Renewal (CCDR), and the Rainier Chamber of Commerce. RAC is a vital part of the Rainier Valley and the world because it serves as a gateway to link significant interaction among committed stewards who provide jobs, education and social services locally and abroad.

Read more "Ruby Love guided an organization I was a board member for through a strategic planning process after another consultant started a process that ended up being divisive for our group. Ruby Love entered into our process graciously, and built trust through her handling of our input and goals throughout the process. We emerged with a plan that I feel great about -- both detailed enough and nimble enough, looking into the future but pointing us toward the present actions we need to focus on. Her wisdom, organizational expertise, and facilitation are the best!"
