Creative Church welcomes you to come and create together IN community ONLINE!

Each month we gather to flex our creative muscles, because when we do so, spiritual practices that nourish emerge as well!

As 2025 is here, and we have had some days to ponder what new rituals, practices and revealings we hope to bring into our life, come craft Vision Boards or Bingo Cards online!
What do you envision for the coming year? What do you hope for your journey in the days ahead? Come create a Vision Board of collage materials, words and pictures or a Bingo Card of things that you hope to do/accomplish/reach in the 52 weeks of the year (don’t forget the FREE SPACE!)

Now is a great time to gather some magazines, newspapers, wrapping paper, pictures, words etc that could be used in your 2025 vision board. Or if you are creating a Bingo Card, begin to envision how that design might look.

What’s a Vision Board? https://www.betterup.com/blog/how-to-create-vision-board
What’s a New Year Bingo Card? https://www.producingparadise.com/self-improvement/how-to-make-a-new-year-bingo-card/

All are welcome to come create with us online.
No experience needed, just a desire to create in (online) community.

“Wisdom Comes with Winters.”
-Oscar Wilde

Join Echoes for Movie Church! Together, we will be watching the Children of the Setting Sun film - Salmon People: Preserving a Way of Life. We’ll gather to watch a movie together and discuss it afterwards. All are welcome to join us for this showing.

Scha'nexw Elhtal'nexw Salmon People: Preserving a Way of Life is an hour-long documentary inspired by the late Chexanexwh Larry Kinley, a Lummi fisherman and tribal leader who promoted sovereignty. 

The film follows two Lummi families fishing for sockeye. As they navigate climate change and a depleting fishery, Larry asks: “Who Are We Without Salmon?”. Celebrating the resilience and adaptive natures of salmon and the people, the film is a spiritual reflection on a lifeway centered on respect and gratitude for salmon.

As a community who thinks a lot about salmon, we hope you will come think about salmon and it’s people with us at Movie Church. Snacks will be provided.

Learn more about the film here: https://settingsunproductions.org/salmon-people-film

Come watch, learn and discuss with us!

Today's Christmas should mean creating happy hours for tomorrow and reliving those of yesterday.”
- Gladys Bagg Taber

“We do not think ourselves into a new way of living. We live ourselves into new ways of thinking.”
-Richard Rohr, Preparing for Christmas: Daily Meditations for Advent

Gather with Echoes for a time of meditation, prayer and quiet reflection by candlelight.

In the season of Advent we are invited to taken on an unhurried posture. The quickness of which the world wants to move to Christmas reminds us that journeying with Jesus is a different pace. Taking time to hear the story before the birth of Love in the world is time worth taking. Let’s live our way into new ways of thinking with love at the center, Slowly.

This season is busy, come slow down. Light a Candle. Be.

We’ll have different experiential prayer stations for you to take what you need in a sacred space.
All are welcome and invited just as you are. We’ve got room.

Sacred Spaces: Opening The Holy Invitation Even Wider

Join the ELCA Northwest Washington Synod Cultivate Team, Facilitators, and Practitioners of unique gatherings and organic forms of church, for a day of experiences and workshops to explore together how we can expand God’s holy invitation even wider.

There are so many ways to gather as faithful communities, whether it's outdoors, in the kitchen, at the pub, creating art, or eating around one big table. Why shouldn’t our gatherings reflect our uniqueness? Why should we innovate alone?

Let’s imagine how we can foster organic sacred spaces right in our own backyards–and support each other as we experiment.

How can we create more inclusive gatherings for people to encounter God? How can we experiment with the gifts we have to meet the needs of those seeking the spirit in our own neighborhoods? What is sprouting up within you that is ready for germination?

Come with ideas, come with questions, come to dream about what sacred spaces can be! Been wanting to experiment faithfully with something new? This gathering is for you (and/or your team!)

You can experience:
Baking Church, Wild Church, Creative Church, Celtic Spirituality, & Pub Church afterwards!

Registration Fees:
$35/person, $100/church (includes lunch)
Scholarships available

Location:
7400 Woodlawn Ave NE, Seattle, WA, 98115

We are grateful to our host site 7400 Woodlawn, which is a prime example of redeveloping an inherited church space not only for new and innovative ministries, but also to connect more deeply with the community.
