Meeting God In Our Busy Lives: The Theology and Practice of Zimzum

by on September 16, 2024 with No Comments
The Rt. Rev. Phil LaBelle

WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 25, 2024, 6:45–8:15 P.M., (as Cathedral Commons) in person in Bloedel Hall and online via Zoom.

FACILITATED BY THE REV. PHIL LABELLE — BISHOP-ELECT OF THE DIOCESE OF OLYMPIA

With overly-packed schedules, many of us wonder if we’ll ever be able to live the lives we yearn for. A life with space for the important things. With a connection to God, others, and the natural world. Jewish mystics suggest that God’s first act of creation was zimzum, a sacrificial self-withdrawal. God needed to open up space within God’s self before God could call forth the cosmos. What might that concept mean for us who are made in the image of God? Join the Rev. Phil LaBelle for an exploration of the Jewish mystical concept of zimzum, and what it can mean for us today.

Sunday Forum on Cathedral Communications

by on September 13, 2024 with No Comments

Cathedral Communications: How to Get the Word Out!

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 10:10–10:50 A.M., in Bloedel Hall

The Communications Committee of the Vestry and Communications Director Gregory Bloch will present a Sunday morning forum for all members of the cathedral community, exploring the various communications channels used by Saint Mark’s, and how parishioners and ministry leaders can best take advantage of those channels. One of the main themes of the 2024 Strategic Plan is “Connecting and Telling Our Stories,” and the whole community is enriched when the stories of this place are shared. The forum will introduce a “Communications Toolkit” for the community, and some individual parishioners will share their experiences.

The slides from this forum are now available here.

Follow Up: Communications Office Hours

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 18, and SATURDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2 P.M., via Zoom. 

As a follow up to the Communications Forum, Gregory Bloch, Director of Communications, and Alexandra Thompson, chair of the Communications Committee of the Vestry are offering "office hours" online via Zoom on a Friday and a Saturday in October. They will be present to address any questions relating to event promotion, the Communications Toolkit, the new Canva brand kit, the podcast relaunch, Slack, or just cathedral communications in general. Have you been dreaming of a new communication channel not currently being used that might benefit the mission and ministry of Saint Mark's? Drop in any time between 2 and 3 p.m.

UPDATE: Thanks to those who dropped in! We hope to offer additional such office hours in the future.

Lambert House on the Saint Mark’s Campus

An article by Lambert House Executive Director Ken Shulman from the Spring 2024 Rubric. Click to open a pdf in a new tab.

UPDATE: Sunday Forum on Volunteer Opportunities at Lambert House

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 10:10–10:50 A.M., Bloedel Hall

This coming Sunday between the 9 and 11 a.m. morning services, a panel of youths from The Lambert House LGBTQ Youth Center  (currently relocated to Leffler House and the Carriage House on the Saint Mark's Campus, see below) will tell us about what Lambert House is, why they go there, and what they get out of it, and then will take questions. Find out about the mission and programs of Lambert House, hear how their move to the cathedral property is going, and learn about opportunities to get involved. Lambert House Executive Director Ken Shulman will moderate the panel.

Saint Mark's Cathedral is pleased to announce the beginning of a partnership with Seattle's LGBTQ+ youth center, Lambert House. This groundbreaking resource for LGBTQ+ young people has a history extending back to 1981, and since 1991 they have operated out of an old Victorian house in Capitol Hill. That building now has critical structural issues that require the entire foundation and basement of the building to be replaced, a $2 million project that will last one to two years. For the duration of the construction, Lambert House's offices and programs will operate out of Carriage House and Leffler House on the cathedral property. Read a brief article by Lambert House Executive Director Ken Shulman from the Spring 2024 Rubric here.

Lambert House officially begins their stay on the cathedral campus this week, on June 27. Cathedral community members should be aware that Lambert House offices will occupy the Carriage House (in the southeast corner of the cathedral property) at all times, and that the Carriage House will not be available for cathedral activities for the duration of their stay with us. In addition, Lambert House has exclusive use of the kitchen and living room of Leffler House on weekday afternoons and evenings, 3:30–10 p.m. Monday through Friday; again, no other activities can be planned for those spaces at those times.

In the words of Executive Director Shulman, "The mesh of missions between Saint Mark’s and Lambert House couldn’t be better. By housing Seattle’s LGBTQ+ youth center, Saint Mark’s is continuing its long history of social justice action and inclusion on LGBTQ+ issues." The cathedral is blessed to be able to support an organization that has benefitted hundred of young people over its 40-year history. Stay tuned for community conversations with the Lambert House leadership in the coming months. Please address any questions to Dean Thomason.
