Throughout July, Grace has collected the ingredients needed to create ready-to-prepare spaghetti dinner bags, a popular and healthy offering for Fishline clients. 

Please join us after coffee hour this Sunday to assemble the bags.

Additional donations are welcome between now and Sunday. Items needed for each bag: spaghetti pasta • two 14.5 ounce cans of diced tomatoes (not the large size) • one medium yellow onion. We will provide spice packets.

Please place items in the baskets in the narthex. Thank you!

All high school youth — rising freshman through recently graduated seniors — are invited on a trip of a lifetime aboard the historic schooner, Adventuress. We will spend 4 days/3 nights onboard this 113-foot ship, sailing through the waters of the Salish Sea. Along the way, we will learn about navigation and marine biology (Adventuress is a floating lab!); we'll search for whales and other wildlife; we'll engage in community building activities; cook meals together; create music and prayer; and even take turns sailing the ship!

We will board the Adventuress at the Port of Everett Marina on Wednesday, August 28 at 10:00 a.m. and return to the Shilshole Bay Marina in Seattle on Saturday, August 31 at 2:00 p.m.
