We look forward to being together to deliberate the council's recommended Operating Budget for 2021.
People have been generous. We give thanks for the financial support so many have shared in 2020. Even in one of the strangest and most demanding years we have ever faced together, you financial support sustained our ministry, made a big difference for our neighbors in need and made possible a long overdue lighting project!
The Council's recommended operating budget for this year includes:
- Maintaining our commitment to support the Northwest WA Synod
- Compensation for our part time Associate Pastor for a full year
- Keeping our staff
- Adjustments for utilities and facility use
- Provisions for keeping our online worship and meetings
- Preschool and Family & Friends Gathering
You can participate on Zoom or by phone. We want to make sure EveryOne is included. If you need help with technology or other arrangements, let us know!

Due to limited education and English language barriers, parents often struggle to assist with homework. Commitment is an hour to an hour-and-a half a week.
We’re also looking for someone who can send weekly email reminders of our tutoring sessions and supervise the Zoom gatherings.
For more information please email pastor Arhiana Shek Dill at or call 425.312.3795. Thank you/gracias for considering supporting Latino kids and their learning in our community.

The World and the Congregation
Needs Your Peace
|
We have been delighted to see the selfie video expressions of peace from the members and friends of Our Savior’s. There have been grandmothers, toddlers, teenagers and pets! Grab your phone, set it to video, hold it in landscape orientation, smile and say “God’s Peace to You!”
We’re collecting these for worship because they bless all those who share online. Your face, your greeting and your willingness to share is a powerful gift and helps in these crazy days of COVID 19.
