Irish born priest new at catholic church
Father Gerry Condon
“ People are much the same
everywhere,” says Father Gerry
Condon, new priest at St. Patrick’s
Catholic Church in Heppner And he
should know. Condon, who was
bom and raised in Ireland, has serv
ed the people in nine parishes in
Eastern Oregon
Father Condon was bom in 1927
in Dublin to James and Anne Con
don. In 1955 he graduated from St.
Patrick’s Seminary in Thurles Coun
ty Tipperary, where he was ordain
ed. After graduation Father Condon
wrote to several dioceses interested
in obtaining priests and the first
response he received was from the
bishop of the Baker Diocese which
includes Eastern Oregon. His first
assignment was in 1955 to Lakeview
in southern Oregon. Father Condon
said that Lakeview is also “ very
Irish’’ and that he found it very easy
to settle in the U.S. The arid Eastern
Oregon climate, however, he said,
is “ vastly different,” from Ireland,
which is damp and mild, much like
that of Vancouver. B.C.
After his assignment in Lakeview.
Father Condon worked in parishes
in Nyssa. Redmond. Wasco, Con
don. Merrill, which is near Klamath
Falls, Ontario and Prineville before
coming to Heppner. He had been to
Heppner before, in 1958, when he
spent several months assisting in St.
Patrick’s Parish. The past year
Father Condon spent working as a
priest in a suburban parish in
Ireland
