Join us for the beautiful Novena of Grace March 4 - 12. This is a uniquely Jesuit devotion that calls on the intercession of St. Francis Xavier during nine days of prayer and liturgy. It is an excellent opportunity to deepen your Lenten experience by carving out a little extra time to spend with our faithful and generous God. The theme is Christ with Us: At Home and In the Wilderness. Our speakers are pastor Fr. Chris Weekly, Fr. Tom Lamanna, and Katie Hennessy. Listen to the reflections here.

Weekday Masses: 8am and 7pm

Volunteer for St. Vincent de Paul
Admin Help & Evening Deliveries

Are you looking for a way to put your faith into action or to deepen your Lenten journey? Join St. Vincent de Paul! We seek volunteers in two areas. First, policy requires that we meet once a month. We are looking for people with administrative skills to help us run meetings, and we also have special need for a treasurer. Second, we are looking for folks willing to make one delivery to one family once or twice per month on a weekday evening. This would get those in need help more quickly  and also lessen the amount of deliveries on Saturday mornings. Please call Annie Lackaff at 503-784-5137. God bless!


Stations & Soup Supper
in honor of Oscar Romero
March 19 * 6pm in the church * Supper directly after Stations

Join us for this special devotion which honors Oscar Romero and all who courageously died for our faith. The stations will reflect the needs of our global family. Bring a pot of soup if you can, and afterward we will break bread together and share food and fellowship in Dillon Hall.

March 22
