Friars offer sanctuary
by Robert Lothian
RELIGION UPDA TE
Fr. Loren K irkoff, O .F .M ., pastor
of St. Clare Roman Ciholic Church in
Southwest Portland, led his West
Coast province o f MX) Franciscan
friars to offer sanctuary to Central
American refugees.
K irkoff said some friars feel strong
ly enough about the issue that they are
willing to break the law.
The Reagan administration has
defined the refugees as illegal aliens.
Transporting or harboring illegal
aliens is a violation o f immigration
laws, and several sanctuary activists
have been tried by the government.
“ Certainly, some friars are willing
to go to jail on this,” said K irkoff,
but so far local support has been
limned to fundraising for the Port
land Sanctuary Coalition and for a
Spokane church that is helping a
refugee family.
The Franciscans will offer their
houses as places of sanctuary, if nec
essary, and they will stand behind
sanctuary activists with legal help,
he said.
K irkoff said he first formed a sanc
tuary education committee and or-
ganizd a workshop. Alter hearing the
story o f a Guatemalan woman at the
workshop, the friars voted unani
mously to support sanctuary, he said.

N o rth P o rtlan d Bibla C ollage was founded in 1982 when several concerned
Christians “ shared their vision for a community-based Bible college in North
Portland. We have seen God at work implementing the vision,” reported
Northern Lights PoZ. 2 publication, of June, 1984 And in 1985 North Port
land Bible College is still growing strong.
I am currently attending North Portland Bible College and I would like to
add my personal testimony on a job well done.
When I invited Jesus into my life, I knew to be an effective member in the
body o f Christ I would be required to understand and know his word. After
much prayer and consulting, my pastor and I began to search for a gixxl Bible
college. However, I did not realize the enormous financial requirements placed
upon a Christian education I had looked into every Christian Bible college
“•In the metropolitan area, overlooking NPB C simply because it was so small;
it was in N E Portland; surely N PB C had nothing to offer me. I knew that the
Lord wanted me to attend the best How can the best be small and unaccredit
ed? Remember: Jesus liked to take something little and make it Great so the
Father may be glorified in Heaven. Knowing this Jesus made a way by the love
and kindness o f Sister Beth Nance, a staff member.
Today I am blessed to be a student at NPBC. The rewards are endless.

Hale to read
recent w o rk
Native American novelist and poet
Janet Campbell Hale will read from
her recent work at Portland Stale
University, Monday, M ay 20, at
7:30 p.m ., in 298 Smith Center, 1825
S.W . Broadway. Hale's reading is
free and open to the public
Janet Campbell Hale, a member of
the Coeur D'Alene Tribe, currently
lives in Bellingham, Washington.
She will be W riter in Residence next
year at the University of Washington.
Her poetry has appeared in four
anthologies,
“ The
Remembered
Earth,” "Voices o f the Rainbow,"
"The Third W om an,” and "Song
From This Earth on Turtle's Back."
Her new novel, published in March
of this year, is "T h e Jailing of Ce
celia Capture." It has drawn favor
able response from reviewers around
the country who cite her use of her
own Native American heritage in
developing the novel. The New York
Review o f Btxiks commented that
Hale's work contained. "Rich detail,
authentic dialogue and unfurbished
prose."
Hale also has published a children’s
novel, "T h e Owl Song."
Janci Campbell Hale’s visit to the
PSU campus is sponsored by the
United Indian Students in Higher Ed
ucation, the PSU English Majors
Association,
and
the
Women’s
Studies Program, with support from
the Academically Controlled Auxil
iary Activities Committee.
“ The more groups like this that
step in and take a stand, the more
hesitant the administration will be to
take on groups that oppose its poli
cies," said Kirkoff.
At the heart o f it, this is a difference
over Central America policies. Our
government policy is illegal,” he said.
“ If there is a poor or oppressed
person, we should help them, it's the
Gospel. These are our brothers and
sisters. We need to work wuh them
and help them attain their human
dignity.”
Kirkoff said he has a problem with
the administration "labelling as com
munist those who are really working
with the poor. Even the Bible has
become a subversive document" in
parts o f Central America, he said
When the Reagan administration
and Central American dictators jus
nfy atrocities in the name of God, he
said, the church has an obligation to
speak out.
Speaking out is nothing new for
the Franciscans: many have been ac
tive in the peace movement, according
to Kirkoff.
The 800-year-old order ol Roman
Catholic men. known for their brown
robes, has traditionally followed the
example of their patron, St Francis,
in siding with the poor and oppressed,
he said
