WELCOME! If you are a visitor to the Cathedral, we want you to know how welcome you are — whether you have come from another part of the country, from across the world, or simply from another parish here in the Archdiocese. Thanks, in part, to the generosity of visitors like you, we are able to celebrate the Church’s liturgy here in a fitting and beautiful way. We are also able to offer a wide range of services to needy people living in the central district of our city. CATHEDRAL KITCHEN GARDEN. Spring is here, and we’re underway with planting in our new Cathedral Kitchen Garden. We are still looking for volunteers to help with planting, weeding, watering, and other tasks. No gardening experience necessary. It’s a lot of fun, and a great way to meet people. To volunteer, contact garden@mylifeinseattle.com. IMMIGRANT ASSISTANCE VOLUNTEER INFORMATION SESSION. St. James ministry to immigrants and refugees provides clients with a range of services from help improving English language skills to help passing the US citizenship exam; from learning how to adjust immigration status to becoming more engaged in the broader community or finding resources to address other needs. Learn how you can serve in this ministry at our upcoming Volunteer Information Session on Monday, May 12, from 5:00pm-6:30pm (Pastoral Outreach Center, Mother Cabrini Room; courtyard entrance on the SE corner of 9th & Columbia). Information, Cecilia Erin Walsh, 206-382-4511. SCREENING FOR MEMORY LOSS. This program is designed to provide information about memory, how it changes as we age, and how to recognize changes that may signal a problem. The more you know about memory and how it works, the better equipped you’ll be to recognize a problem if it arises. Tuesday, May 13, 2014 at 7:00, Cathedral Place. Information, John Simpson, 206-274-3173. PLAY BALL! St. James Young Adults are gearing up for another season of summer softball. The season runs June through August with games on either Monday or Thursday nights. We had a great season last year and have been anticipating the season’s start all winter. This is a great way to get involved in the St. James Young Adult Community and to meet new friends. Players of all skills levels are welcome! Registration forms are available on the St. James website or by emailing Caitlin Lanigan.

We get together the second Monday of the month to knit or crochet hats and scarfs for the homeless. Some of us are beginners. Some have been knitting for years. Never knitted before? We’ve taught others to knit, and will help you, too. Want to join in on the fun? Yarn, knitting needles, and other such things can be donated; we promise to put them to good use. PARISH REMEMBRANCE: Throughout the year, because we are the Cathedral Church, we remember in prayer at Mass and Vespers each of the parishes and missions of the Archdiocese of Seattle on a Sunday near their feast day. This week we remember in prayer the parish of St. Catherine in Seattle, and the mission churches of St. Catherine in Cathlamet and Concrete, and St. Joseph the Worker in Yacolt.
