Getting ready for Easter

The stanchions are almost finished. They will be used to rope off the baptismal font at the Easter vigil.

Pilgrimage to Mt. Angel

Deacon Paolo Dayto led a pilgrimage to Mount Angel Abbey which is the location of a Benedictine Monastery and a seminary for the Archdiocese of Portland.

Looks like the younger crowd is enjoying the museum.

Just like any good monastic community we have Side 1 and Side 2 (below).
