This church was founded in 1889, and is the oldest Catholic diocese in Portland (the details of which can be found on the web site).

I drive by the church every day, though it is a little hard to see it through the freeway overpass.  Some of my first photos on Trover were of this structure.  It's really a gem, but you'll have to get here before 2pm on a weekday if you want to look inside.  That is the kind of discovery you can't hope to make at 1:57 pm and still get there in time.

Well, that will give me something to do the next time I come by.

One of the most beautiful structures in Portland.  If you wait around until sunset, you can catch it with a halo.
