ST VINCENT DE PAUL APPRECIATES YOUR SUPPORT A veteran struggles with PTSD. The artistic work he creates provides income and helps keep his mental health symptoms under control.

The man called the St Vincent de Paul Helpline requesting assistance (206-767-6449). Thanks to your help, we were able to offer rental assistance.

TEEN, YOUNG ADULT AND ADULT VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR FAITH FRIENDS MINISTRY Faith Friends is a unique blend of our Faith Mentor, children’s faith formation program, and an inclusion ministry. The program's goal is to give children and teens ages 7- 18 with physical, cognitive and/or intellectual disabilities access to the parish community, social events, and faith formation. Perhaps the most unique aspect of the Faith Friends program is the Faith Peer program. Faith Peers are teens and young adults who have chosen to live out their discipleship and share some of their personal time in dedication and service to the goals of the program. Adult volunteers are needed for the Adult Leadership team. Training for Faith Mentors, Faith Peers and Adult Leadership begins soon. Information, Jennifer Wong, 206-619-0816, faithfriends@stjames-cathedral.org, or https://stjames-faithfriends.weebly.com.

Please reach out to explore how you can serve our children and together with them attend to the voice of the Good Shepherd. Information, Theresa Van de Ven, tvandeven@stjames-cathedral.org.

CARE FOR CREATION TIP OF THE WEEK Consider switching to laundry detergent sheets, which reduce the number of plastic jugs in landfills and contain less toxic ingredients. Because laundry detergent sheets are lighter, transport pollution can be significantly reduced by 94%. bad. And using biodegradable laundry sheets do not contain the same chemicals that traditional detergents have, which can contaminate our oceans, rivers, and water supplies, as they contain toxic heavy metals.
