MARY’S MISSION—Fr. de Rouge came on the Colville Indian Reservation in 1886 and helped develop what has become St. Mary’s Mission. Fr. de Rouge started a school here so the Government wouldn’t take the Indian children away from their parents. Some parents lived by Omak Creek next to the Mission so their children could attend school. On May 9, 1916, Fr. de Rouge left us, and that Fall, Fr. Celestine Caldi replaced him. On Wednesday, Mar. 2, 1938, Fr. Caldi passed away. Together, Fr. de Rouge and Fr. Caldi gave over 50 years of their life for the Mike Murray Ad Indian Children here at St. Mary’s Mission. One of the biggest problems that Fr. de Rouge and Fr. Caldi faced each year was trying to find enough money to keep the school operating. It was people like Ms. Wilhelmine F. Coulbaugh who provided the financial support that the Mission needed. Ms. Coulbaugh and her sister, Ms. A.C. Brown, gave Fr. Caldi all the money he needed to build the Sacred Heart Chapel for the Madams at the convent. Ms. Colbaugh sent Mass stipends, and established a “Fr. de Rouge PSIS SUPERINTENDENT/FR.

The curriculum culminates in a trip to the 4-H Challenge Low Course at Twin Lakes.
