St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church, Forest Grove


Our Parish for the Week of June 11:

St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church, Forest Grove

We are thrilled to feature St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church in Forest Grove as our Parish of the Week! Here’s a few fun things to know about this wonderful parish.

  • St. Anthony’s is busy with special events throughout the year, including a Holy Week Passion Play and silent procession, a Spring Tea, and Friendraisers like a Holiday Bazaar, Drive Thru Dinners, and Tamale Sales!
  • The Intercessory Prayer Group also prays the Seven Sorrows Rosary each Thursday at 3 p.m.
  • Recently St. Anthony’s participated in a Eucharistic Revival Pilgrimage with the Tualatin Valley Vicariate, where Adoration and Benediction were held at various parishes during a period of about 6 weeks.
  • St. Anthony’s serves their community through organizing funeral luncheons, offering meals in times of need, and bringing communion to the homebound. They put on fundraisers for youth programs (often selling delicious food like pies or tacos!) and have a very active St. Vincent De Paul ministry!
