Volunteers Needed to Serve
We need your help! There is a critical shortage of Eucharistic Ministers at all of our Masses. If you are fully initiated (baptized, First Communion, Confirmed) please consider serving. The Extraordinary Minister of the Eucharist (EME) helps to distribute the Body and Blood of Christ at Mass. This is an honor and a blessing to you and those you serve. The commitment requires arriving at least 15 minutes prior to Mass, and you can serve as little as once a month. Please email officemanager@holydisciples.org to learn more about this opportunity to grow in your faith.

Seattle Seafarers Center Ship Visiting Team
Our economy in Puget Sound is built around our ports. Yet, very few know about the crews that work on the container and bulk cargo ships that visit Tacoma and Seattle. These ships are staffed by men and women who spend up to 11 months away from family and face isolation and loneliness. Would you like to be part of welcoming and caring for these hard working mariners? The Seattle Seafarers Center is putting together a Ship Visiting Team in Tacoma. They will provide training. Interested? Please call 206-935-3439 or email office@mts-seattle.org
Baptism Preparation Classes
Parents of children under age 8 are invited to attend our baptismal preparation class which will be offered at Holy Disciples on Saturday, August 3rd at 9:00am. This class will give you an opportunity to understand your primary role as parents in raising your child in the faith. Godparents are welcome to attend! To sign up for this class, email the Office Manager or call the parish office.
