And I expect it will stay that way. He is part of a church in Vancouver. He has no reason to consider the Church in Portland. And some reason not to.

Choice due for several reasons:
1. Vancouver became a Local Church this past summer.
2. Back in the mid-ninties when I was a single brother, I attended a home meeting in Vancouver with the family I was visiting in SE Portland.
3. I do have a sister living in a Portland suburb with her family. Like me, she was raised in the local churches. Now, no need to meet with the Church in Portland, when she and her husband are very active with the Christians in their community. It comes down to choice. Why make a lengthy drive where the Church of Portland meets, when there are many Christian gatherings in west of Portland where my sister lives?
