Weekly Online Welcoming & Centering & Prayer
2026-07-17 12:00 - 13:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | WA
Fridays, starting September 19, 12:00 pm
$20 Suggested Donation to Sacred Waters
Weekly Online Interspiritual Group Contemplative Practices beginning Friday, September 19, via Zoom. Welcoming Prayer meets Fridays from 12:00pm PT to 12:30pm PT. Centering Prayer meets Fridays from 12:30pm PT to approximately 1:00pm PT. Fee: $20/month for either or both sessions. Register to receive the Zoom link.
Though contemplative practices are often thought of as solitary endeavors, community is a very important component in supporting our individual intentions. Whether you’re an experienced contemplative or just starting to engage, you’re welcome to join in!
Welcoming Prayer is a method of consenting to God’s presence and action in our physical and emotional reactions to events and situations in daily life. The purpose of the Welcoming Prayer is to deepen our relationship with God through consenting in the ordinary activities of our day — “consent-on-the-go.”
Centering Prayer is a receptive method of silent prayer that prepares us to receive the gift of contemplative prayer, prayer in which we experience God’s presence within us, closer than breathing, closer than thinking, closer than consciousness itself.
Facilitator: Sylvia Sepulveda is a longtime longtime practitioner, organizer, and facilitator of contemplative group practices. She offers spiritual direction, dreamwork, retreats, and art-based workshops through Secret Garden Practices (https://secretgardenpractices.com/).

Sundays, 4:30 pm
The Come As You Are service is casual and welcoming. While it follows the structure of Anglican liturgy, it’s designed for those who may have a hard time sitting still, whether you’re a toddler or an octogenarian. This service creates opportunities for all to participate in worship, either by moving between prayer stations, hearing the Gospel told in story form, engaging in an interactive sermon, or gathering around the altar. It’s for people who have never been to church before, and for anyone seeking a place to belong.

Choral Evensong
2026-07-19 17:30 - 18:00 | Epiphany, Seattle, 1805 38th Ave, Seattle, 98122
Sung at the close of day in Cathedrals and churches throughout the world, Choral Evensong is a service of Evening Prayer, derived from the ancient offices of Vespers and Compline. The choir sings the traditional evening prayers of the church that have been offered for centuries, while the congregation listens, joins in the hymns, and adds their own prayers to those of the choir. It is an opportunity for peaceful meditation in the midst of a busy week.
Every Sunday at 5:30 pm.
Followed by a reception.

Sundays, 9:30 – 10:00 pm
A beloved Seattle institution since 1956, the all-male Compline Choir sings the last monastic office of the day, offering prayers before sleep, giving thanks for the blessings of the day that has passed, and asking for “a quiet night and perfect end”. Hundreds pack the cathedral nave each week for this meditative service, while thousands more listen to the live radio broadcast on Classical KING FM 98.1 or listen to weekly podcasts.
Tune your radio to Classical KING FM 98.1 or listen live at https://classicalking.org/. Podcasts are available at https://complinepodcast.org/ or wherever you get your podcasts.

Join facilitator Rick Jackson* at Grace Episcopal Church, Bainbridge Island
All are welcome to this free series.

Based on Healing the Heart of Democracy by Parker J. Palmer.
The program will include video interviews with the author.
This community dialogue welcomes people of diverse backgrounds, beliefs, and generations. We will engage conversations about politics in ways that serve the common good. In particular, we’ll explore 5 Habits of the Heart that we can practice in everyday settings in our families, neighborhoods, classrooms, congregations and workplaces.
5 Habits of the Heart that make democracy possible:
-An understanding that we are all in this together
-An appreciation of the value of “otherness”
-An ability to hold tension in life-giving ways
-A sense of personal voice and agency
-A capacity to create community

$350 Registration
Come along for a youth pilgrimage to the Diocese of Hawai’i as we hear their stories of community and immigration history.
Next summer, July 28-31, high school youth (ages 15-18) will have an opportunity to travel to Honolulu, Hawai’i for the Province VIII Youth Pilgrimage. We will be gathering with students from Hawai’i, Taiwan, Arizona, Navajoland, Utah, Oregon, Washington, California, Nevada, and Idaho. As part of a three-day pilgrimage, we will be exploring stories of community through two different lenses, the indigenous community of Hawai’i, and their history of immigration. And we will also bring immigration stories from the Diocese of Olympia.
Our guiding scripture is 1 Corinthians 13:12.
“For now we see only a reflection, as in a mirror, but then we will see face to face. Now I know only in part; then I will know fully, even as I have been fully known.”
It will shape the way we prepare for the pilgrimage, journey to Hawai’i, partner with the other pilgrims we meet, and return home.
Please visit the registration link for more details and information about the pilgrimage: https://ProvinceVIIIGathering.eventbrite.com

Each evening, we’ll close with prayer and song and have time for reflections.

The per-person price includes two nights’ lodging, all meals, and activities. A small number of single bedrooms are available; many are shared bedrooms (with private bath) – you can indicate your preference. Another option: we have space for tent camping!

College for Congregational Development - 2026 Summer Sessions
2026-08-16 - 2026-08-21 | Sacred Waters Center, 7550 E. State Route 106, Union, WA, 98592, United States
June 21-26: Year A
August 16-21: Year B
Registration for our 2026 Summer Sessions at The Sacred Waters Center for Restoration and Retreat is now open!
Our two dates are (Sunday afternoon through Friday noon)
June 21–26: Year A
August 16–21: Year B
We are doing two different curriculums this Summer. First time participants can start with either Year A or Year B.
In June, we will be doing Year A of our curriculum, which focuses primarily on the spiritual life, self‑awareness, and internal capacity of congregational leaders and communities, establishing the theological and relational foundations necessary for effective congregational development and adaptive change. Participants will work on facilitation skills, transformational listening processes, organizational systems, understanding who they are as leaders, trust building, conflict management, and sustainability.
In August we will be offering “Year B” of our curriculum, which focuses primarily on organizational culture, group dynamics, congregational vocation/identity, how we join God in gathering-transforming-sending folk, change processes, episcopal identity, neighborhood engagement, cultural diversity, power dynamics, and developmental skills for liberation and social justice work.
The College for Congregational Development is a comprehensive training program that originated in the Diocese of Olympia in 2009 and has since expanded to dioceses across the United States. The College seeks to nurture and develop congregational development practitioners from within existing parish lay and clergy leadership. Drawing on congregational and organization development theory and practice, it focuses on developing healthy, responsive leadership, facilitation skills, and teamwork, through understanding of Anglican/Episcopal ethos, culture, spirituality, and ways of being the church today. It is a two-year program.
Both sessions are residential. Tuition covers room and board at the conference center, materials, trainers and other costs.
