Welcome To Our Lady of Sorrows
Snoqualmie, Washington
How do we express our discipleship?
By returning a portion of all that has been given to us back to God.
Archbishop Etienne beautifully affirms this in his Spirituality of Stewardship video, reminding us that “the starting point of stewardship is recognizing that everything we have, everything that we are, is by God’s initiative—God’s grace.”
Embracing stewardship allows us to experience the deep joy that comes from developing, using, and sharing our God-given gifts in service to others.
Your pledge of Treasure makes it possible for our parish to continue its mission and ministries. Thank you for being part of this journey of faith and generosity.

Suicide Loss Support Group
Those who have experienced a loss by suicide are invited to attend a 7-week grief support group every Tuesday, 6:30pm – 8pm from November 4th to December 16th at the Pastoral Outreach Center in Seattle.
Facilitated by St. James Cathedral Staff Anisa Ralls, these sessions will encourage you to reflect on how our Catholic faith can facilitate spiritual healing, provide comfort amidst ongoing grief, and inspire both hope and service. We will watch the series When a Loved One Dies by Suicide together, featuring stories of Catholics whose loved ones have died by suicide and explaining Church teaching on suicide while offering prayers of comfort and support.
Preregistration required and space is limited. For more information and to register, please contact Anissa Ralls at aralls@stjames-cathedral.org or 206-382-4269.

"I wasn’t sure at all how I would feel about attending the retreat. The amount of love, caring, sharing, and general concern we were shown was so moving. It made my heart, mind, and soul grateful and full of relief. The manner in which we were treated, cared about, and given insight into God’s mercy was beautiful!”
