Coming Events

This past week was the first full week of Andrew's ministry with us in the Archdiocese. He is a blessing from God! He brings many gifts and talents, and we give God praise and thanks for his ministry in the Archdiocese of Seattle. Looking forward to ministering with him as stewards of the Liturgy Office. Next week Andrew will be giving a presentation for Wine and Wisdom on the Sacred Liturgy for all young adults in the Archdiocese. Here is the flyer for that event. (Andrew is pictured in the flyer wearing the suit and tie, in case you were wondering.)

Archbishop Sartain will honor, recognize and bless Catholics who teach at local public and non-Catholic private elementary and high schools, colleges and universities as witnesses of the Faith. Teachers, all staff, and their families are invited to attend Mass at 5:30pm on August 24, 2013 at St. James Cathedral. All are welcome! For more information, contact the Office of Catholic Faith Formation by email or by calling (206) 382-4593. You may also view their flyer for the event.

Earlier today was an initial meeting to discuss preparations for the Mass for Life, which is scheduled for January 21st at 9:30am at Marcus Pavillion on the campus of St. Martin's University. And yes, we even have a flyer for that event.

After the meeting, I was reflecting on how quickly the summer has gone by, in that we're already beginning preparations for the Mass for Life! But we still have a few weeks left, and with the beginning of Seafair Weekend and my third and final week of staycation for the summer beginning on Monday, I hope and pray you are taking some time out for rest and relaxation as well in these last few weeks of summer and will be able to begin the new school year with energy and excitement as we continue to build up God's kingdom and give Him glory and praise.
