Join Catholic Charities of Oregon for an evening of storytelling with Jesuit Father Greg Boyle. He’ll explore the choice to move to society’s margins and how compassion, kinship, and belonging transform despair into hope.
“Incandescent, always hope-filled and often hilarious. Boyle somehow maintains an exuberant voice that celebrates the strength, compassion and humanity of people often demonized.” – Christian Century
Father Greg Boyle is the founder of Homeboy Industries, the largest gang-intervention, rehabilitation and re-entry program in the world.
