This past St. Patrick’s Day saw the celebration of 125 years of parish life at Hillyard’s St. Patrick Parish. Bishop Daly, along with Bishop Emeritus Skylstad and many former pastors, were on hand to celebrate a Mass of Thanksgiving with the community. The historic church was filled with current and former parishioners celebrating their community and offering their gratitude to God for the work he has done through St. Patrick’s church. At this same Mass, two young people from the parish received the sacrament of Confirmation and their first Communion. At 125 years, the parish is passing on the faith and looking to the future with hope.

“Built of Living Stones” was the 2003 building fund campaign theme for St. Mary Presentation’s new church in Deer Park, Wash. As a parish, we recognized that the sacrifices of our community were the “living stones” which made our success possible.

One hundred and ten years to the day from the Consecration of the Church of our Lady of Lourdes by Bishop O’Dea of Seattle, a new marble Altar was consecrated by Bishop Daly. The current Cathedral building began its life as a parish church, its cornerstone laid in in 1903 and the church consecrated in 1908. The church was only later designated the Cathedral with the establishment of the Diocese of Spokane in 1913.
