Blessing of the Dory Fleet
Pacific City, Oregon
June 14, 2003

This year's annual Blessing of the Dory Fleet was held at the Cape Kiwanda beach area as usual.  The Blessing was coupled with a memorial to those fishermen who have passed.  Three members of the local clergy was present and each in turn gave their blessings and lead prayers for the safe passage of the dorys.  Many local Dorymen brought their boats to participate with the blessing.
(Our special thanks to Craig & Susie Wenrick for organizing this year's event)
