Eucharist Ministers:
We recognize the great privilege of sharing the Body of Christ with our brothers and sisters during Mass each week.  Have you ever considered the call to share Eucharist with our homebound brothers and sisters as well?  We have parishioners who can’t come to Mass but who would cherish a visit from Our Lord.  Please prayerfully consider this opportunity.   If you would like to extend your current ministry to include Eucharist Visitation, or would like more information about this ministry, please call Judy Hartford at 425.301.9255.

Thank you so much.

 

 

 

Daily Meditation

“If you were to die today, what would others say about you? What was in you that was beautiful, that was Christ-like, that helped others to pray better? Face yourself, with Jesus at your side, and do not be satisfied with just any answer.” – St. Teresa of Calcutta
