Behind the Seams: Fashioning Gender with Clara Berg

with No Comments

SATURDAY, MAY 11, 2–3 P.M., Museum of History and Industry, 860 Terry Ave N, Seattle 98109. Sign up required.

Hosted by 20s/30s—All are welcome 

Pink for girls? Pants for boys? From color to cut, what we wear is infused with our era’s ideas about gender. Designers may emphasize “masculine” or “feminine” elements on a garment or create a “unisex” look, but the rules around what those words mean change over time. Join MOHAI Curator of Collections and Saint Mark's 20s/30s member Clara Berg for an intimate, in-person, one-hour session to view historic fashions in MOHAI’s collection which align with, deviate from, and expand our ideas about gendered clothing.

The Saint Mark's group will attend the session at 2 p.m.—some may choose to arrive early (1 p.m.) to visit the museum’s exhibits and/or join after (3:30 p.m.) for snacks and refreshments at a restaurant nearby the museum.

Tickets are required for Behind the Seams admission. A limited number of discounted tickets from Saint Mark’s are available ($20). Sign up here. Questions? Email Rose Hazard: pinuprose90@gmail.com

Pastoral Care Update

with No Comments

The cathedral clergy are available to parishioners in need of pastoral care, and the best way to contact a priest after hours for urgent concerns (e.g. emergency hospitalization, serious injury, etc.) is by calling or texting them on their personal cell phones. These numbers are readily available to all parishioners via the Parish Directory (accessible via a link in the upper right of the cathedral website) or the ChurchLife mobile app. If you have not yet installed this app on your phone, we encourage you to do so—it is a great resource. Erik Donner can assist you with downloading the app or can simply provide you with the priests’ numbers himself; email edonner@saintmarks.org or call 206.323.0300 ext. 217.

For non-urgent pastoral messages, call the church office and leave a voicemail message, either for one of the priests or in the general mailbox. You can also email prayer requests anytime to prayers@saintmarks.org.

Learn more about pastoral care here.

Continuing a series with began last month, join in this Sunday morning forum for a discussion and resources on different spiritual practices—yoga and music (Adrienne Hubbard), bird watching (Gordon Miller), and writings from Everyday Discipleship (Canon Wendy Claire Barrie).

This is a great opportunity to try a new spiritual practice during the season of Easter!


UPDATE: Canon Barrie was called away unexpectedly and was not present for this Sunday forum.

The following slides and resources were shared at the forum:

Vigil at the Altar of Repose, 2024

with No Comments

MAUNDY THURSDAY, APRIL 6, 9 P.M. until dawn on Good Friday

The Vigil at the Altar of Repose begins upon the conclusion of the Maundy Thursday liturgy (around 8:45 p.m.) and continues through the night in McCaw chapel. This ancient practice is inspired by Jesus' question to his disciples in the Garden of Gethsemene, "Could you not stay awake with me one hour?" As in recent years, this vigil will be an online offering, with a live video available all night.

The length of the vigil depends on those who volunteer. For security, doors are locked, and each participant opens the door for the next at the beginning of each hour. (If someone arrives late and the chain is broken, the vigil concludes at that point.) In 2023, volunteers were present continually until 8 a.m.

If you are interested in spending an hour in prayer, please sign up for a slot here no later than Monday, March 25. Contact Sacristan Michael Seewer with questions: mseewer@saintmarks.org
