Have You Tried The Pool?

So....you've visited Washington Cathedral....maybe you serve the Lord in MAJESTY Creative Arts....but you feel "SOMETHING" is missing in your expereince.
Could it be the POOL?
Ahhh, yes, the pool. Did you know that we have a beautiful exercise and therapy pool at Washington Cathedral? It's 4 feet deep with lanes and a zero entry for people who are confined to wheel chairs to just roll on in to it. The pool is an awesome place for anyone interested in better health to get a great workout.
Plus, with the cooler temperatures approaching...wouldn't some warm water be nice?
Call the church office and wade into the water soon! 425-869-LIFE

Trunk or Treat & Harvest Festival Fun!

We really had a blast on Saturday for our Washington Cathedral "Trunk Or Treat" and Harvest Festival for all of the kids at the church and in the community. We had several cars decorated and ready to hand out candy (tons of it) to all the really cute kids in costumes. My husband

Bruce and I were "Tigger" and "Winnie The Pooh" for the event. We've been doing this for many many years now....probably close to 15 years, if I had to guess!

The Harvest Festival was held in our new gymnasium. There was waaay too much to do for all the kids in the gym. The parents were having as much fun as the kids too.

Didn't make it to Washington Cathedral this year for the event? Well, be sure to put us on your calendar for next year!

Huge Thunder, Lightning & Rain

Wow! What a day of weather we've had today! Huge rain, lightning, thunder and more rain!

Yesterday I golfed in the HUGE rain. And I had sooo much fun! Really, I had a TON of fun! I am privileged most Friday mornings to golf with a wonderful family of golfers at Wellington Hills Golf Course. It's not a fancy course. It's a course for people who just love golfing. And all of my friends there are so kind and gracious to this "new" golfer. What a way to start the day!

That's the way life should be...filled with kindness and grace for ourselves and others. Even when there is huge thunder, lighting and rain in our lives, Jesus loves us 100 percent of the time. He's either perfecting or correcting us in every situation. What a blessing to know the creator of the universe loves us so much. Armed with that kind of love, we should be able to live each and every day wtih great JOY, even with it's really tough out there.

I was thinking this morning how blessed I am to have such an amazing Creative Arts Family in my life. This has been such a BIG year at Washington Cathedral. With all of the big things Jesus has put in our lives at the church, it would be very easy to be overwhelmed....except, that I KNOW Jesus loves me so much. All of the BIG stuff has been a gift from Him to me. Am I going to say "Wow and Thank you"....or "You gotta be kidding, I can't handle it". I choose "WOW and THANK YOU, JESUS!"

Blessings to you,
Pastor Naomi

25th Anniversary Celebration for Washington Cathedral

Wow! What an amazing weekend for all of us at Washington Cathedral! Our Creative Arts Family had so much fun!
We started with the Friday night Celebration Rally where Dr. Carl George captivated us with his knowledge of the Meta Church....and we found out that we've been doing a lot of things RIGHT! Whoohooo! The MAJESTY Creative Arts choirs lead us in worship and provided some amazing music throughout the evening. The evening ended with a Children's music celebration blast! It was a ton of fun!
Saturday was all about Leaders and Leadership. We had a day of learning that brought us to the fountain of God. It was so encouraging and uplifting. Each of us came a way with new tools to use as we all work to bring the precious message of Jesus to the world through loving and caring for people.
Sunday brough tears to our eyes. God filled the Mountainside Sanctuary with people who love Washington Cathedral and have participated in its' growth. We had visitors who were part of the 1st decade of growth. They flew in from other parts of the country just to celebrate this important milestone with us. It was a sweet time. The sweetest part for this Pastor was the closing prayerful song "Bless This House". We invited members from our first choirs to join with us. Washington Cathedral's first choir director, Walt Hemphill helped lead the song that just filled us with renewed hope for our church. God has a plan for Washington Cathedral for the next 25 years and it's a plan for goodness and joy!
