SATURDAY, APRIL 27, 10:30 A.M.–3 P.M., registration required for lunch
Check out Bishop Skelton and Dean Thomason's video invitation to Cathedral Day 2024!
Cathedral Day is a “family reunion” for Episcopalians from across western Washington—a time for connecting across communities, experiencing your cathedral in a new light... and having a lot of fun. There’s something for everyone—no matter your age! A liturgy of Holy Eucharist with the rites of Confirmation, Reception, and Reaffirmation for candidates from parishes near and far will begin at 10:30 a.m., opening with a grand, colorful procession of parish banners. Following the service, all are invited to enjoy lunch from food trucks and participate in activities for all ages. (Food truck lunch free with registration.)
This year’s Cathedral Day is Saturday, April 27, and celebrates the idea of pilgrimage, with Saint Mark’s serving as your sacred destination. For centuries, cathedrals have served as Christian pilgrimage sites, drawing people of faith into the orbit of wonder and awe. And so this year, all are encouraged to consider the day’s journey as a pilgrimage to your cathedral. Saint Mark's parishioners are especially encouraged to attend, both to participate in a very special occasion, and to help extend hospitality to visitors, many of whom will be visiting their cathedral for the first time. Learn more and find the link to register here.

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

SUNDAY, JUNE 12, 12:30–2 P.M., in Cathedral House Room 210
For its June gathering, the Second Sunday Book Group is reading the award-winning book The Worst Hard Time: The Untold Story of Those Who Survived the Great American Dust Bowl (2006) by New York Times journalist and a Seattleite Timothy Egan. It chronicles the hopes of people who moved to the high plains and the Texas panhandle in search of a living or a fortune and the terrible retribution nature exacts when abused. The worst dust storm carried twice as much dirt as was dug out of the Panama Canal. The canal took seven years to dig; the storm lasted a single afternoon. From 1930–1935, nearly a million people left their farms, their dead animals, their stunted crops, and their destroyed towns. Thousands died from inescapably swallowing and inhaling the swirling topsoil. Some stayed; some survived; some were heroes. This is a cautionary tale about trifling with nature. The Saint Mark's Book Group meets on the second Sunday of even-numbered months. Contact Pearl McElheran with questions.

Thomsen Chapel Doors Restoration Update
The doors to Thomsen Chapel are a signature feature of the Cathedral’s façade, and after a century of weather, they are in need of restoration.
Update, April 19: The doors were removed this week and taken to the artisan’s shop for restoration, which will take about six weeks. Temporary doors have been installed to secure the entrance, but allow for entry as usual. This is made possible through a gift in memory of Don and Alice Jean Lewis by their sons.
For more information, contact Dean Thomason.

|
Daily Morning Prayer Update
The liturgy of Morning Prayer, following the form in The Book of Common Prayer 1979, was offered on each weekday in Lent. Many people found great value in the practice, and so, now under lay leadership, the offering will continue each morning, Monday through Friday, at 7:30 a.m. However, starting this Monday, April 15, Morning Prayer will now use the same Zoom link as Daily Evening Prayer. The link used in Lent will no longer work. Learn more about the Daily Office here.

Pastoral Care Update
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 Church Life 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. Thanks!
