The Pope of Mercy
By Andrea Tornielli (Vatican New's Editorial Director)
"God’s mercy is our liberation and our happiness. We live for mercy, and we cannot afford to be without mercy. It is the air that we breathe. We are too poor to set any conditions. We need to forgive, because we need to be forgiven.”
If there is a message that has most characterized Pope Francis’ pontificate and is destined to remain, it is that of mercy.
The Pope passed away suddenly on Easter Monday morning, after giving his final Urbi et Orbi blessing on Easter Day from the central Loggia of St. Peter’s Basilica, following his last round through the crowd to bless and greet them.
The first Argentine Pope in the history of the Church addressed many themes, particularly regarding his care for the poor, fraternity, care for our common home, and his firm and unconditional “no” to war.

Fr. Matthew Oakland share his experience:
" I would not be a priest today if it weren’t for ministries supported by the Annual Catholic Appeal. The new youth group that started my freshman year of high school played such an important role in helping me own and grow in my faith. Similarly, in my two years at Western Washington University, the Newman Center provided a home, a place of worship and lasting friendships, and a seed bed for a great many vocations to the priesthood and married life. The ACA supports our youth and young adult programs, our CYO camps, as well as our college campus ministries. It paid for my seminary formation, so I could focus on giving my life as a priest in service to God and His people. One of my favorite opportunities in West Seattle was to visit the cargo ships that bring in so many of the goods we use each day, to pray and offer Mass with the dozen or so crew members. We have an entire ministry program dedicated to serving these individuals who are away from home, a ministry which is supported by the ACA.
The Annual Catholic Appeal helps meet the spiritual and practical needs of our faith community throughout Western Washington, assisting parishes and schools and ministries beyond. Your support makes a difference not just in my life, but in the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in these and other ways. "
Our parish goal for 2025: $41,100.
Our Project: buy a new keyboard for use during Mass (our old one broke and our current one has been on loan for the last 18 months)
