Many questions have arisen about who to make donations payable to. If you attend Mass at:

• Pope St. John XXIII, please make your donations payable to “Pope St. John XXIII Parish.”
• SJOW, please make your donation payable to “St. John of the Woods”
• South Tacoma Chapel (formerly Visitation), please make your donations payable to “Pope St. John XXIII Parish” and add “ST Chapel” to the memo line.

Donations made to each specific site will go towards the expense of that site, as well as to our shared expenses of clergy and school subsidy.

Thank You

Don't forget your Church
During the summer months, many of our parishioners are away from the parish on weekends. We hope and pray that it is a much needed time of recreation and relaxation for you.
The Sunday collection is very important for us to maintain our fiscal responsibilities. So, if you are away on a Sunday, ENJOY; but, remember YOUR church.

Synod

In the fall of 2021, the Archdiocese began hosting synodal gatherings across Western Washington. After a general overview of the synodal experience, the Archdiocese has prepared a synthesis that explores in greater depth the three principal themes that emerged: community, leadership, and the handing on of the faith. To read the synthesis, go to the Archdiocese website at https://archseattle.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Final-Synthesis-with-appendix-min.pdf.
