Sanctus

We are so excited that the Sanctus Welcome Circle will be welcoming a Ukrainian refugee family in the next week or two.

You can read more about them here: https://mailchi.mp/354528ca92d3/meet-the-naumenkos-from-ukraine-and-how-you-can-help

We are in need of a full size mattress, a car seat for an almost three year old, and a booster seat for a four year old.

If you would or someone you know would like to donate towards these items, you can make a donation at our website a the link below!

Please pray for safe travels for this refugee family!

Toy Drive for Refugees! Please share!

Please join us in assisting refugee families! Sanctus has the goal to gather Christmas gifts for 170 Congolese refugee children!

These families have been forced to flee war torn Democratic Republic of the Congo. Did you know that Seattle is one of the main hubs for refugees? There are about 10,000 Congolese refugees in the south Seattle area, and more are coming.

We can help bring the joy of Jesus to these families by providing Christmas gifts to their children.

You can purchase gifts on our Amazon wishlist and have them shipped to us! For more information and link to the wishlist, visit www.wearesanctus.org/heart-for-congo

Most gifts on the wishlist are about $10.

We will help distribute gifts on Friday, December 16th. Thank you for your generous support!

Friends, please keep our School of the Heart retreat in prayer this weekend!

Specifically, please pray for the students:

…To experience the love of God the Father, to be freed from shame from former sins and lifestyle, and experience freedom of a child of God.

…To establish a more intimate relationship with Jesus in prayer and to experience a conversion of heart.

Happy All Saints Day! We are all called to holiness!

Be perfect, therefore, as your Heavenly Father is perfect.
Matthew 5: 48

You are God’s chosen people. You are holy and dearly loved.
Colossians 3: 12

You shall be holy, for I am holy.
Leviticus 11: 45

We are sanctus.

Tomorrow we get to celebrate all the saints in heaven, even the ones whose names we don’t know!
