On January 22, 2023, the Archdiocese of Seattle publicly announced Partners in the Gospel, a pastoral process to guide us in discerning together how renew parish life in the Pacific Northwest.
This page has been set up to help provide access to resources, information, and updates as we make our way through this multi-year work of prayer, discussion, reflection, and action. May we take this opportunity not only to stay informed & engaged, but also to enter into prayer – individually and as a community – for ourselves, our parishes, and our archdiocese.
