The baptized offer themselves in a spiritual sacrifice; the ordained ministers celebrate according to the Order they received for the service of all the members of the Church; the bishops and priests act in the Person of Christ the Head.

An important message from the Archbishop: Dear faithful of the Archdiocese of Portland and all Persons of good will, I was shocked and deeply saddened to hear of the violent tragedy that took place in Portland on Friday, (May 26th). My heart goes out to all those affected by what happened, and I ask the faithful in Western Oregon to join me in taking some spiritual and practical actions in working towards peace and respect for those who make up this wonderful and diverse community. Pray for the victims and their families. Our profound gratitude is owed to those who bravely stepped forward to protect the young women who were being vehemently harassed. Pray for those who may now feel unsafe in moving freely about in a city that truly welcomes people of all cultures, faith traditions and walks of life. Pray for those whose hearts and minds may be hardened to the love of God and act out in such violent and hateful ways. I encourage all of us to work with local citizens, government officials and faith-based agencies such as our own Catholic Charities to welcome all people to this amazing and vibrant community. It is only through these Christ-like actions that we can truly make a real and tangible change to this continuing and growing disregard for the dignity of every human person. The peace of Christ be with you all, Archbishop Alexander K. Sample Catholic Charities 2017 Annual Campaign Catholic Charities wishes to thank you for your participation in our 2017 Annual Campaign.

When we speak about the Holy Spirit, we speak about the breath of God, breathing in us. The Greek word for spirit is pneuma, which means breath. We are seldom aware of our breathing. It is so essential for life that we only think about it when something is wrong with it. The Spirit of God is like our breath. God s spirit is more intimate to us than we are to ourselves. We might not often be aware of it, but without it we cannot live a spiritual life. It is the Holy Spirit of God who prays in us, who offers us the gifts of love, forgiveness kindness, goodness, gentleness, peace, and joy. It is the Holy Spirit who offers us the life that death cannot destroy. Let us always pray: Come, Holy Spirit, come.
