Father Bill Wetzel
St. Philip given parish status
By Kathryn H. Boyle
St. Philip The Deacon Parish, was
admitted to the union o f parishes o f
The Episcopal C hu rch , in the
Diocese o f Oregon, as o f October 20,
1979. About 400 persons, including
clergy, vestry, members and friends
o f The Episcopal Church gathered to
witness and endorse the union.
Father W illia m ( B ill) W etzel,
young Vicar o f St. Philip, is fond o f
saying, “ I still believe in the Son
when I cannot see the ligh t.” That
day, his own face aglow, the young
Vicar’s message was clear. The day
was for celebration.
Held long in the dreaming, held by
faith, the event became fact when the
legislative body o f the Diocese met at
Holiday Inn A irport, ending a three-
day conference o f last week.
A lth o u g h the outcom e o f th e ir
deliberations regarding the petition
o f St. P h ilip was anticipated o p ­
tim istically, there had been many,
many years o f preparation for this
day. F ifty years may be s ix ty -o r
more.
There had been a last year o f
p re lim in a ry steps that had to be
followed precisely. There had to be a
molding o f attitudes for a supportive
congregation to carry on the fu ll
responsibilities o f parish status.
But the day had arrived, and when
the pronouncem ent was made, a
minor pandemonium broke out and
spread quickly. The sedate meeting
came to a halt. The Rt. Rev. M at­
thew Begliardi, presiding Bishop o f
the conference, rose to his feet and
join ed in the joyous celebration.
Some wept quietly.
Fr. Bill, the catalyst for all o f this
day, loomed taller than ever among
the w ell-w ishers who crowded
around. To them, the was heard to
say again and again, "W e have come
this far by fa ith .”
St. Philip The Deacon Parish had
become o f age.

If you have a problem that is not covered in this list, please call and ask
whether we can help. Chances are, we can. If not, we can recommend
someone else for you to call. One way or the other, we want to see you get
the kind of professional legal counsel you're entitled to.
The best time to call us, or any attorney, is before you are embroiled in a legal
problem. This is called preventative law and it makes a lot of sense.
Regardless, when you call us we will arrange for an initial consultation at
your convenience. Cost: $20. We probably can't solve anything in this meeting,
but it is a chance for you to explain your particular problem and for us to give
you some idea of what it'll take to reach a solution. If you want us to proceed,
we II give you an estimate of the fees you should plan on. In writing
