Catechism of the Catholic Church: A Sure Guide

Francis Cardinal Arinze energetically draws from his experience to

help us see the practical value of the

Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC)

today, which was given as a guide to living

our daily lives in accordance with Holy

Scripture and the Sacred Traditions that

have been passed down to the Church

through the Apostles. The CCC is intended for use by all Christian faithful, and Pope

John Paul II declared it to be "...a sure

norm for teaching the faith"- Fidei

Depositum.

Sunday Coffee Hour will resume in September!

Because there are not enough volunteers during

the summer months, the Sunday Coffee Hour will

take a break and resume in the fall on September

6, 2015, when everyone has returned from their

summer activities.

We want to thank all who have so generously

volunteered for this ministry and hope that you

return refreshed and willing to volunteer again in

September.

Pope Francis & the World

Meeting of Families: There is

22-27. The trip is filling up fast,

so act quickly if you want to see

Pope Francis in Philadelphia. The week-long Congress also

workshops. For complete information on how to register for

this exciting pilgrimage, visit www.seattlearchdiocese.org/wmf.

Neighbors helping Neighbors

Thank you for donating to your neighbors in need.

Often people are surprised about the diversity of the clientele at the

food bank. There is a pervasive myth that food banks primarily serve

people who find themselves homeless. While about 19% of the

individuals we serve do not have stable or permanent housing, a

significant number of our clients work part-time, full-time, or are

between jobs. 17% are under the age of 18 and 26% are seniors. A

client’s home may be a house, an apartment, a vehicle, or on the

street. To put it simply: our clients are our neighbors; neighbors who

are constantly expressing their gratitude and appreciation for our

donors an volunteers who make the services and resources of the

food bank possible.

We continue to find new ways to bring food and hope to our

neighbors. This school year we are serving 150 students each week

through our Weekend Food for Kids Program and are extending it

for the summer months to meet the needs of students during the

break.

There is a large box in the parish center to collect your non-

perishable items. Thank you.
