Please consider a charitable bequest to St. Mary s Cathedral in your estate A Word from the Pastor (Part IV) The 1830s and 1840s saw a great deal of missionary activity in the Pacific Northwest. Sometimes the various denominations worked cooperatively to evangelize the native peoples, and sometimes not. The evidence is that as each group of missionaries arrived at Fort Vancouver, Dr. John McLoughlin offered them generous hospitality. Rev. Samuel Parker, a Presbyterian who arrived in 1835, said that Dr. McLoughlin received me with many expressions of kindness and invited me to make his residence my home for the winter. To the dismay of his superiors, Dr. McLoughlin was prodigal in offering food, supplies, and farm implements to the newly arrived settlers without any guarantee of repayment. Such displays of humanitarianism especially with the American settlers was unacceptable to his British superiors, and it would ultimately lead to his resignation as chief factor. He retired to Oregon City in The first missionaries to arrive in the Oregon country were Methodists. Rev. Jason Lee and his nephew, Rev. Daniel Lee, arrived at Fort Vancouver in In 1836, the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions, a mostly Congregationalist organization, sent Dr. Marcus Whitman and Rev. H. H. Spaulding to the northwest. Mrs. Whitman and Mrs. Spaulding made their home at Fort Vancouver for several months while the men were establishing their mission. Jason Lee had originally planned to set up a mission among the Flathead Indians (present day Montana), but Dr. McLoughlin advised against this and recommended that Lee settle in the nearby Willamette Valley. Lee eventually settled at a site a few miles northwest of present day Salem. Here he met about a dozen French-Canadian settlers, with their wives and children. These Catholic families would later be served by Fr. Francis Norbert Blanchet at St. Paul. Though his work was mainly in eastern Oregon, Idaho, Montana, and the Upper-Midwest, mention should be made here of another great missionary: Fr. Pierre-Jean De Smet, S.J. Fr. De Smet was a Belgian Jesuit priest who traveled to St. Louis in 1823 to complete his theological studies and to begin his studies of Native American languages. When a delegation came from the Flathead and Nez Perce Indians to St. Louis in search of black robes, they came into contact with Fr. De Smet. De Smet said that he had never met any Indians so fervent in religion as these delegates. In 1834, the Holy See gave care of the Indian missions to the Jesuits. Fr. De Smet volunteered his service, which was accepted; and in March 1840, he headed for the Oregon Country. As mentioned in a previous column, the first Mass in the present-day State of Oregon took place at St. Paul (then called French Prairie) in Many missionaries arrived in the Oregon Country at this time, and Dr. John McLoughlin showed hospitality to all of them. His own inclination in religion was towards Catholicism. Already baptized Catholic, though raised Episcopalian, Dr. McLoughlin made his Profession of Faith on November 18, At Christmas Midnight Mass, he made his First Communion. Msgr. Patrick S. Brennan
