SUMMARY:Cathedral Commons—A Holy Lent
DESCRIPTION:WEDNESDAY\, FEBRUARY 11\, 2026\, 6:45–8:15 P.M.\, in person in Bloedel Hall or online via Zoom.  \n \nA Holy Lent\nEach year on Ash Wednesday\, we are invited “to the observance of a holy Lent\, by self-examination and repentance; by prayer\, fasting\, and self-denial; and by reading and meditating on God’s holy Word.” At times\, we may have heard that described as a time to “give something up” or “take something on.” What might it be like to approach a “Holy Lent” as an invitation to live incarnationally and sacramentally? Join Canon Wendy Claire Barrie and CSA Director the Rev. Carol Westpfahl as we explore spiritual practices meant to draw us closer to God. \n Join via Zoom \nProgram is free; optional community dinner at 6 p.m. ($8/adult; $25/family max.)

SUMMARY:Silence and Honey Cakes: Lessons from the Desert for Modern Communities
DESCRIPTION:A LENTEN QUIET MORNING \n\n\n\nSATURDAY\, FEBRUARY 21\, 2026\, 9 A.M.–12:30 P.M.\nin person in Bloedel Hall and online via Zoom\, registration required. \nwith the Rev. Sr. Miriam Elizabeth Bledsoe\, OSH \nFrom the beginning\, we were created for belonging and community. And yet\, community also comes with many challenges\, including the temptations of individualism\, conformity\, competition and power. How do we discern and nourish the truth of who we are and who our neighbor is? How do we manage the variations of gifts\, limitations\, calls and vocations within our communities while also nurturing the persons in those communities and in the margins? The desert mothers and fathers of the 3rd and 4th centuries understood that the heart of the Christian path was communion with God and with one another. They also knew the challenges of belonging and community. These ammas and abbas will be our teachers as we explore belonging\, loving\, and navigating the blessings and temptations that can manifest in community. \nFee $29 (includes sales tax now required by WA State). Registration is required for in-person or online participation (register to receive Zoom link).

SUMMARY:Cathedral Commons—Finding Portals into God’s Story
DESCRIPTION:WEDNESDAY\, FEBRUARY 25\, 2026\, 6:45–8:15 P.M.\, in person in Bloedel Hall or online via Zoom.  \n \nFinding Portals into God’s Story—The Bible and Why We Read It (Especially) Today\nFacilitated by Dean Thomason — All are welcome\, even if you aren’t participating in the Contours of the Christian Life process \n“In Scripture\, God has uttered for us\, not the last word but the first—a word designed to set us off on pilgrimage\, in pursuit of that life that God has willed for us to have.” (Wm. Countryman). As the opening foray into our Contours of the Christian Life series\, Dean Thomason will offer some insights into prevailing themes\, trajectories\, and grounding theology found in our Scriptures\, while those gathered reflect together on our questions: Why do we read these ancient books still? Through what lenses of interpretation do we read them? What do they have to say to us in our time? What can we learn from Scripture about who God is and who we are as God’s people? All are welcome to join\, either in Bloedel or on Zoom. \n🔗 Zoom link  \nProgram is free; optional community dinner at 6 p.m. ($8/adult; $25/family max.)
