For many centuries, the Catholic Church has dedicated November as a month of prayer for the deceased. This tradition is observed in many families and communities as we celebrate Día de los Muertos. Here at University of Portland, we have observed this ancient custom since our founding in 1901.
On behalf of our community on The Bluff, we invite you to join us in prayer again this year for those who have gone before us. Please click this button to share with us the names of your departed loved ones online.
