THE MISSION OF CASCADE CHRISTIAN WRITERS

Cascade Christian Writers is a charitable organization (501c3) dedicated to equipping Christians in both the craft and business of writing, connecting them with industry professionals, and fostering a spirit of collaboration among its members as they write for the Lord in whatever way He leads.

THE STORY OF CASCADE CHRISTIAN WRITERS

Faith-driven writers. Excellence in craft. A Christian writing community for every stage.

Founded in 1963 and long known as Oregon Christian Writers, Cascade Christian Writers exists to connect writers, strengthen their craft, foster meaningful relationships with industry professionals such as editors, publishers, and agents, and offer encouragement along the journey. Writers from around the world attend our conferences each year. Cascade Christian Writers is also proud to host the annual Cascade Writing Contest, featuring the Cascade Awards, a respected and prestigious honor within the Christian writing community.
