<h3>1959 Article</h3> The Pacific Coast Conference was organized 1 November 1906, to include the three Mennonite churches of [[Oregon (USA)|Oregon]] and Idaho which had previously belonged to the [[Kansas-Nebraska Mennonite Conference (Mennonite Church)|Kansas-Nebraska Conference]], with a total of 135 members, viz., [[Nampa (Idaho, USA)|Nampa]] (Idaho), Albany (Oregon, USA), and [[Hopewell Mennonite Church (Hubbard, Oregon, USA)|Hopewell]] ([[Hubbard (Oregon, USA)|Hubbard]]) (Oregon, USA). Later, besides additional congregations in Idaho and Oregon, newly established congregations in [[California (USA)|California]], [[Arizona (USA)|Arizona]], and [[New Mexico (USA)|New Mexico]] were added. The [[Amish Mennonites|Amish Mennonite]] congregations in Oregon which had belonged to the [[Western District Amish Mennonite Conference|Western Amish Mennonite (AM) Conference]] joined the Pacific Coast Conference in 1921. Before the merger in 1920 the Pacific Coast Conference had six congregations with 362 members; the merger added three congregations with 449 members. In 1948 the congregations in Southern California, Arizona, and New Mexico withdrew to form the South Pacific Conference. In 1957 the Pacific Coast Conference had a total membership of 2,174 in 21 organized and 12 mission congregations distributed as follows: Oregon 17 organized and 8 mission congregations with 1,680 members; Idaho three organized and two mission congregations with 293 members; California one organized and one mission with 21 members. Creston, Montano, which had been a member of the Western AM Conference until 1916, then joined the Pacific Coast Conference, transferred to the [[Northwest Mennonite Conference|Alberta-Saskatchewan Conference]] in 1923.<br />

<hr/> <h3>1987 Update</h3> The Pacific Coast Conference included 24 congregations in [[Oregon (USA)|Oregon]], Idaho, and [[Washington (USA)|Washington]] in 1986. The membership of these congregations was 2,284. The South Seattle and (Portland) Peace congregations had joint [[Mennonite Church (MC)|Mennonite Church]] (MC) and [[General Conference Mennonite Church (GCM)|General Conference Mennonite]] (GCM) affiliation, and Ranch Chapel near Culver included members affiliated with other denominations. Sixteen congregations, including four Hispanic ones, were organized after 1955; two of these disbanded. Eleven congregations had withdrawn from the conference between 1960 and 1987. One soon disbanded, one had no Mennonite relationships, two functioned as community churches but related to the conference, and two related to [[Western Conservative Mennonite Fellowship|Western Conservative Mennonite Fellowship]]. Several also related to [[Bible Mennonite Fellowship |Bible Mennonite Fellowship]].<br />

The Pacific Coast Mennonite Mission Board began mission work in Mexico in 1955. In 1970 a committee representing conference and unaffiliated congregations assumed oversight of the work. The board also encouraged church planting in the [[United States of America|United States]] in the early 1980s. In 1981, Logsden began the Toledo Mennonite Fellowship; New Covenant at Portland organized in 1981 and withdrew in 1985; Emmaus at Portland organized in 1982 and disbanded a year later. <em>Missionary Evangel </em>was the quarterly conference publication in 1987. The official conference archives were located in a vault at Western Mennonite High School, with additional holdings in Eugene and elsewhere; holdings were not indexed or catalogued. The conference owned and operated Western Mennonite High School at Salem and the Mennonite Home at Albany, which provided nursing and residential care and independent living apartments for the elderly. -- <em>Hope Kauffman Lind</em><br />

After the restructuring of [[Mennonite Church (MC)|Mennonite Church]], the [[General Conference Mennonite Church (GCM)|General Conference Mennonite Church]] and the [[Conference of Mennonites in Canada|Conference of Mennonites in Canada]] into Mennonite Church USA and [[Mennonite Church Canada|Mennonite Church Canada]], Pacific Northwest became part of Mennonite Church USA. <br />
