Dear Friends,

Please save the date for the St. Maria’s Home Fundraiser Gala on Thursday, September 10, 2026 at Amaterra Winery in the West Hills of Portland.

Join us for a beautiful evening of dinner, hope, and celebration featuring special guests David and Margaret Bereit.

We are also excited to share important announcements about the future of St. Maria’s Home and the next chapter of this mission to bring the first Catholic Maternity Home to the Portland Metro area.

Additional details and formal invitations will follow in the coming weeks. We hope you will join us.

With gratitude,

We are so grateful for the generosity of those who came to our first fundraiser!

Lady Hill Winery was as perfect for this event as the weather was on Sunday Sept. 29. God has truly smiled on our efforts. The wine, food, talks and camaraderie were enjoyed by all who attended.

Fr. John Boyle, Pastor at Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Cottage Grove was incredibly inspiring as our Keynote Speaker. Dina Marie Hale, our emcee did a beautiful job both at the fundraiser and in the preparations beforehand.

Our founder, Marie Barzen and our co-founder Claire Anctil spoke about our vision to provide a nurturing home for pregnant women in need.

We raised to date about 3/4 of our financial target to begin operations. This moves us into the “looking for a home” phase, as we seek additional funds to ensure continuing operations. We are discussing options for a follow on fundraiser this winter.

We want to extend our most heartfelt thanks to all those who attended, or donated in the days surrounding the event. Your gifts are sincerely appreciated and we are honored that you entrusted St. Maria’s Maternity Home with your pledges.

We’d like to also thank Nate and Jamie Snell from Pip’s Original Doughnuts, Helen Heller for the beautiful flowers and Jennica Powers our photographer. They donated their talents and time to make it a beautiful event.

Saint Maria Goretti and Saint Joseph, pray for us.

Praise God on high!!!

Our Home, St Maria's Home, God's Home, now has its first employee!!!

My unsung hero, the guy who during our nightly prayers, even when I didn't believe in "the dream, the need" would come true, would always,,, pray for my dream to come true...

He has officially been approved as an Intel Encore Fellow!!! There are matching funds that will greatly help our *Home.

There is another unsung hero, who has pledged to pay the *Home('s) first years rent/lease!!!! 👏

Thank you Lord on high for helping us in our building campaign. Continue to shower us with grace and know how. We pray for our sisters who are homeless and pregnant. Help us, our team and our supporters guide and nututure them back to spiritual and emotional health. Help the mothers to be self-sufficient and to trust in you! Amen

I'm also working on securing our first Fundraiser at a local winery. It will be on a Thursday in June. Guest speakers will be featured.

We're also waiting on the approval of a lease agreement.

This Is Happening!!!!
