Police look for missing, endangered woman; may be heading to Catholic chapel

PORTLAND, Ore. – Police are asking for the public’s help in finding a missing woman who they say has a mental illness and has not been taking her medication.

Anne Delaney has a history of going missing while leaving to visit 24-hour chapels and not eating or drinking during the trip. Portland Police said she leaves “with the mission: fast unto death.”

She was last seen Friday morning at the Holy Rosary Church in Portland. They say in previous disappearances she’s turned up in Los Angeles, Oklahoma, and New York.

Delaney is described as about 5-foot-8-inches tall, weighing about 100 pounds with black hair and brown eyes. She was wearing a dark-colored wool jacket and dark pants. She had a rosary around her neck and was carrying prayer cards.

If you see her, call local police for a welfare check.
