Wolves that enter the state from Idaho’s packs are protected under both the state and federal endangered species acts. The Oregon Legislature is the only entity with authority to change the Oregon Endangered Species Act. The Commission, however, has the authority to add or remove species from the state list of threatened and endangered species. All meetings will begin at 7 p.m. The doors will open at 6.30 p.m. The town hall meetings are scheduled for the following locations and dates: -Pendleton: Tuesday, Nov. 12, Pendleton Convention Center, 1601 Westgate;and -LaGrande: Wednesday, Nov. 13, Eastern O regon University, Hoke Hall, Room 309, One University Blvd. All interested persons are encouraged to attend. More information about wolves has been posted to the ODFW Web site at h ttp :// w w w .dfw .state.or.us/ ODFWht ml / I nfoCnt rWi l d/ graywolfrwolfmain.htm. The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife will host two town hall meetings next week in Pendleton and LaGrande to hear the thoughts, concerns and comments of Oregonians about wolves entering the state. The comments recorded at the meeting will be provided to the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission for consideration. The Commission is the rule- making body for ODFW. The seven-member Commission has heard from a variety of experts in the past several months about the potential for wolves to become established in Oregon. The Commission now wants to hear from local residents to ensure that all opinions have been gathered. Currently, no wolves are confirmed to live in Oregon. However, three wolves were found in Oregon in 1999 and 2000. One radio-collared w o lf was returned to Idaho, one was hit by a car and died in May 2000, and one was shot in October 2000. Biologists expect all three were dispersing from established packs in Idaho.

Since 1980, Saint Luke Productions has been dedicated to renewing the culture through Catholic drama, producing live, v ideo and film dramas on the scriptures and the lives of the saints. Their live dramas have been seen by more than 650,000 people throughout the English-speaking world, and their award- winning v ideos have been broadcast worldwide. Saint Luke’s latest project is a full-length feature film, "Therese", which will be released in movie theaters this spring of2003. "The Gift of Peace” was the first drama that Leonardo Defilippis, founder of Saint Luke Productions, produced and performed in 1980, and is now being rev iv ed with Michael McNamara in the one-man role. "Performing Christ is an exciting opportunity for me as an actor, and most especially as a Christian," says McNamara. "I get the amazing chance to spend time with the Gospel, making Christ’s words my own. It’s a powerful experience. And tour life is hard but rewarding because of the people. You never know when you will meet a hidden saint.” Filled with all the elements of professional theater, including lights, a simple, elegant set, costumes, an original soundtrack, dance, song and drama, "Gift of Peace" is entertaining and inspiring for all ages. Michael McNamara transforms himself into the angel Gabriel, the ancient Zechariah, the trusting Mary and the skeptical Peter, in a program that runs about one hour. Admission is a free-will offering.
