Pilgrims of Hope: Jubilee 2025
Jubilee 2025 (December 2024 through December 2025) was established by Pope Francis, calling the faithful to become Pilgrims of Hope. For pilgrims travelling to Rome for the Jubilee, there will be many events, including the opening of the holy doors at various sacred sites. More information here.
To participate in the Jubilee locally, the Archdiocese of Seattle has established five specially designated pilgrimage sites the faithful can visit, either one or all of them. Each of these pilgrimage sites will have Jubilee signage in the vestibule and printed guides in English and Spanish to lead pilgrims to make a special visit of prayer and reflection.
Visit the Archdiocese of Seattle’s Jubilee Year 2025 page, here, to learn more about the Jubilee Year and the list of the five local pilgrimage sites to visit for prayer, reflection and the Jubilee indulgence.

Beware of Email and Text Scams
Some parishioners have received "phishing" emails, phone calls, and texts from scammers purporting to be Fr. Woody, asking for help. Father Woody does not need gift cards and is not asking parishioners for help. It is a scam!
Just a reminder that the parish, parish priests and deacon, and parish staff/volunteers will NEVER ask you to give them a donation directly. They will also never email you from an account that does not end in @holydisciples.org, or say things like "I'm in a meeting...can you help me out?"
If you receive a request (usually via text or email that does not come from @holydisciples.org) for a gift or a favor that appears to come from the parish, parish priests or deacon, or parish staff/volunteers that isn’t for one of the above, you should ignore this request and report the email address to your email provider, like Gmail or Yahoo.
