O'Hara Clubs
School clubs offer the opportunity for students to explore special interests and are run by parent volunteers after school. A club can focus on just about any topic that kids might have an interest in - Legos, math games, chess, world cultures and languages, etc... are just a few of countless possibilities. If you are interested in leading or co-leading a club at O'Hara, please contact Mr. Milliron. Time spent volunteering will count toward FIP hours.
A list of clubs to be offered will be announced in the Bulletin in late January and signups will follow soon after. The first round of clubs will begin in early February and end prior to Spring Break. Additional clubs may be offered after Spring Break and will be announced later this spring.

Eugene Seminary Benefit Dinner - March 6, 2016 
Please join Mount Angel seminarians for the 7th annual Eugene Seminary Benefit Dinner, on Sunday, March 6, at 4:30 p.m. at the Valley River Inn in Eugene. The reception begins at 4:30 p.m., followed by dinner and the program.
Guests will break bread with seminarians at their tables, getting acquainted with the men who will offer the light of Christ to the world.
Many of you have watched your seminarians grow into their vocations, through pastoral formation assignments as deacons and, finally,
as ordained priests. These are men our world needs.
