Lumen Speaker Series - David Guerrero Del Rio

Be Still and Know That I Am God - A Gentle Whisper Within the Soul

October 22nd at 7:00 PM 

UW Newman Center

What happens to our sense of identity when we lose something? a job, a place on a team, or a dream? How can we in those moments be still and trust the gentle whisper within the soul? Drawing on his experience of being let go from Microsoft (twice), David will share how the Glory of the Lord was revealed in the midst of chaos. He will reflect on work, uncertainty, and finding peace in Christ through knowing who God is and who we are in Him: beloved children of God.

Join us for a beautiful fall hike to Yellow Aster Butte in the North Cascades on October 17th!

We anticipate arriving at the trail by 8am, and reaching the summit at 11:30am where we will enjoy the views and celebrate Mass! After Mass, we will hike back and plan to arrive back at Blessed Sacrament Church by 7:30pm.

Please see our sign up page HERE for more details about what to expect from the trail, what to bring, and more!

Our modern world dwells on the surface. It takes effort for us to go into the depth—the depths of our friendships, our careers, and our faith. On the 3rd Thursday of each month at 7pm at the Newman Center, we will be having our Diving Deeper series, where we will dive deeply into the riches of our faith. Come and probe into the deep riches of our God and our faith.

This month’s topic will be Prayer, hosted by Fr. Marcin.

Join us for a beautiful First Saturday Rosary Pilgrimage Walk on Saturday, July 4th, beginning after the 8:30am Blessed Sacrament Mass. We will meet at the Baptismal Font immediately after Mass, then depart around 9:15am (depending on when Mass ends) to begin our pilgrimage.

We will journey together from Blessed Sacrament to Ravenna Park, prayerfully walking and meditating on all four Mysteries of the Rosary—a sacred time of about 75 minutes immersed in prayer, nature, and community — ending around 10:30am.

This Lumen event will feature a Q&A panel of five priests from diverse backgrounds, representing both the Eastern and Western Catholic Churches. Panelists include Fr. Marcin Szymanski, O.P., Fr. Colin Parrish, and Fr. Joseph Park, O.S.B.

The intention of this panel is not necessarily to focus on theologically heavy questions or apologetics, but rather to provide young adults with insight into the daily lives, vocations, routines, joys, challenges, and experiences of priests.

The panel will begin with a guided discussion around three prepared questions, giving each priest the opportunity to share his own background and current ministry. After this structured discussion, the evening will move into general audience Q&A.

Join us for a beautiful hike at Heather Lake on Saturday June 13, 2026.  This is a moderate hike with a good elevation gain with spectacular views of Mt. Pilchuck. This hike goes through the forest and around the lake with some great classic PNW lush greenery.

There are a couple of switch backs at the beginning. The higher up there are more rocks and roots on the path. Expected hiking time is about 4 hours out and back. We will stop for an hour at the lake for Mass and lunch after.  You can expect to be back in Seattle around 4:30pm.

Why has Our Lady of Guadalupe been called the “Empress of the Americas”? And why did Saint John Paul II describe the Guadalupan Event as the “perfectly inculturated” model of evangelization? In this presentation, we will weave together the biblical imagery of Revelation, the historical upheavals of the 15th–17th centuries, and the compelling story of the 1531 apparitions to Saint Juan Diego. We will then “read” the tilma, its symbols, language, and cultural meaning, to see how Guadalupe became a uniquely powerful bridge between worlds, promoting peace, human dignity, and unity among peoples, and inspiring a living devotion that continues today, including a call to monthly prayer leading up to the 500th anniversary in 2031.

"The Use of Prayer in the Treatment of Chronic Illness" presented by Dr. Kamryn Laurence, ND

Chronic Disease is becoming more and more common across America with rates of cardiovascular disease, cancer and autoimmunity increasing every year. Dr. Laurence has seen countless patients who appear to be doing all the right things: eating healthy, exercising regularly, and drinking plenty of water, but they are still so sick. In these cases, there are often larger obstacles to cure that are being missed. This talk will look at commonly overlooked causes of chronic illness and how prayer can be a helpful tool to improve health outcomes.
