Adult Enrichment: Romero
Join
us on Monday, June 7th at 7:00 PM in McGirl Hall for
a showing of the movie Romero. As the Archbishop of
San Salvador during El Salvador’s brutal civil war,
Romero became the “bishop of the poor.” Calling for
international intervention to protect those being
killed by government forces, Romero was assassinated
on March 24, 1980. Archbishop Romero still
challenges us to restructure our world, “in which
growing disparity in wealth, increasing human misery
and social violence, and ecological devastation
exist as a result of human sin.” Don’t miss the
opportunity to view this important movie. All are
welcome!
Church Work Party
Do
you feel like you want to do more for your parish
community, but don’t usually have the time? Join us
on Saturday, June 12th at 9:00 AM in the church
parking lot for a parish work party! We will be
working on the grounds grading, weeding, and
performing general landscape maintenance. All
ability levels are encouraged to lend a hand!
Everyone is welcome!
Parish Food Drive -
Ongoing
Are
you going to eat that? The soup you don’t have room
for. The vegetables that were on sale. The cereal
your baby doesn’t like. If it’s good food—unopened
and unexpired—the Issaquah Food Bank really needs
it. St. Joseph makes it even easier for you to
participate! A parish volunteer delivers donations
once a week from St. Joseph to the Issaquah Food
Bank. Just bring your food donations to the church
and drop them off in the boxes downstairs next to
the elevator.
