On behalf of Unbound, thank you for welcoming me to Holy Disciples. Our hearts are full of gratitude for the generosity you have shown to the children, youth, and the elders in our sponsorship program. Through your willingness to partner with Unbound, the parishioners of Holy Disciples have taken steps toward a closer walk with Jesus in the name of the poor. We pray that members of your parish community who answered the call to sponsorship will be richly blessed by their experience. For those who still want to sponsor or learn more,
Gratitude from Father Anthony Nguyen, C.SS.R.

Looking to become Catholic?
Already Catholic, but not Confirmed?
If you answer "Yes" to either of these questions, then now is the season to consider joining others who are on a similar Journey of Faith. There are different trails on the Journey of Faith depending on each person's individual history and needs:
Already a baptized Christian - that's one trail. Not yet baptized - that's a different, parallel trail.
Just needing to complete your sacraments of initiation and get Confirmed - we have a shorter, simpler trail for you!
All of this is part of our ongoing Adult Faith Formation and OCIA Journey of Faith programs.
Please connect with John or Monica in person after one of the weekend Masses for more information and to get a registration form.
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
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 only email you from an account that ends in @holydisciples.org.
If you receive a request 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, you should ignore this request and report the email address to your email provider, like Gmail or Yahoo.
