Students from Chesterton Academy of Notre Dame hosted a pajama drive for the Christmas Bureau Spokane and visited Penelope as they dropped off their donations. We enjoy seeing all the photos from families, volunteers, and school groups as they visit, take a ride, and prepare for Christmas. We will forever be grateful for the opprotunity to serve the Spokane community in this simple way and bring awareness to the service of the Christmas Bureau during this Holy season.

Distribution ends at 2pm December 19th.
Donations are always accepted: www.christmasbureauspokane.org/donate

Where are all those souvenirs now? Many thanks to Chey Scott and Young Kwak of the Inlander for a fun afternoon remembering expo '74.

It feels a touch of providence that May 4th marks both the 50th anniversary of the launch of Expo 74 and the birthday of our founder and patriarch John R.Conley Sr. John would be 97 this year and he would most certainly be reminiscing and enjoying the Expo celebrations in downtown Spokane. We continue to thank God for our history and the rich legacy of this community.

The continued story of all those Expo souvenirs is in the May 2nd edition of the Inlander.

Beannacht Dé oraibh - God's blessing on all of you this St. Patricks Day!🍀

Saturday was a lovely day for a parade, gatherings of family and friends, perfect pints and fare at Shawn O'Donnell's American Grill and Irish Pub, and the moving and joyous sound of the Spokane County Firefighters Pipes and Drums. Many thanks to the The Friendly Sons of St. Patrick. Sláinte Spokane!
