A short account detailing the early days of the Irish Capuchin mission in Oregon.
The Mission’s Origins: Reference is made to Fr. Thomas Dowling OFM Cap. returning to Ireland to report his and Father Luke’s investigations into this ‘neglected portion of the Lord’s Vineyard’.
Official Acceptance (1910): The text records that at a Provincial Chapter held at St. Mary of the Angels in Dublin in 1910, the work in Oregon was officially accepted by the Irish Capuchins.
The First Three Missionaries: Three priests (all from Kilkenny) were chosen to join Father Luke in Bend:
Father Leonard (Brophy)
Father Benignus (Brennan)
Father Casimir (Butler)
