Due to COVID-19, Hopelink has suspended all donations of physical items to their facilities. They do not have staff to sanitize everything that comes in. Instead, they are asking for monetary donations.

Thanksgiving still happens. Church of the Redeemer and Holy Apostles will again be supplying Thanksgiving Baskets in the form of a $100 Safeway grocery card. Each family can fill their own Thanksgiving Food Basket. The cards will be given to the residents on Monday, November 23, to give them time to shop.

Donations may be made in any amount, no matter how small. You can fund an entire basket or any portion thereof.

If you choose to donate online (from Giving at the top of this page), please specify Shelter-Thanksgiving from the To list. For checks, send them to PO Box 82677, Kenmore, WA 98028, with “Shelter-Thanksgiving” in the memo.

Thank you in advance for your contribution to see that these families have enough at this time of year.

Holy Apostles Greek Orthodox Church

The people of Holy Apostles Greek Orthodox Church are on a journey to build a vibrant, Christ-centered, Spirit-filled community of faith that serves as a witness to the love God has for us all. Just as the Holy Apostles were called by Christ to spread the “Good News” to all people, so is the vision of our parish to share the Gospel of Christ with one and all. We are a sacramental, life-changing church. At Holy Apostles, we strive to develop a life of prayer and to grow meaningful, honest relationships as we care for those around us.

Church of the Redeemer

Welcome to Church of the Redeemer: Worshiping God, living in community, and reaching out to the world. We are an Episcopal Church serving north King County and south Snohomish County, Washington. As you travel your road, go with friends walking the way of Jesus at Redeemer.

Church of the Redeemer is at 6210 Northeast 181st Street in Kenmore, Washington. The campus is a short distance north of Bothell Way, near the Burke-Gilman Trail. The entrance looks like a gravel driveway. The campus is larger on the inside than it is on the outside. And we managed to hide a large building on the side of a hill that is not easily seen from the street.

The Episcopal Church welcomes you.
