Diocesan Events

Join local religious leaders and fellow citizens who will gather in Seattle’s Saint Mark’s Cathedral at this critical juncture of our nation’s history.

The Rev. Lisa Graumlich, Ph.D., a distinguished climate scientist and ordained Deacon, will give a presentation beneath the TERRA exhibition (a 24-foot globe displayed in the cathedral nave) exploring how a truly global perspective might inform our response to the ongoing climate crisis—a Community Resources Fair will precede and follow her talk.

This daylong workshop, led by Ron and Joanne Miller, offers practical training and discussion on emergency preparedness and safety in faith communities, equipping clergy, staff, and volunteers with tools to respond effectively to crises and prevent violence in houses of worship.

Saint Mark's will again present its beloved "O" Antiphons Advent liturgy on the evening of the First Sunday of Advent, in the cathedral nave and livestreamed, a moving and evocative entrance into the sacred season of prayerful expectation.

With multiple choirs, instrumentalists, and cathedral finery in the soaring space of the cathedral nave, Saint Mark’s Pageant of the Nativity is a children’s Christmas pageant like no other—a prayerful, scripture-centered, and inspirational meditation on Christ’s coming into our world.

Discuss the realities of being in the wilderness—whether a hiking trail or a difficult season of life—and contemplate how to prepare for those times with spiritual practice, discovering how we can cross the threshold from a time of descent to one of delight.
