Support the Church with Escrip! It’s easy and free!

Every time you shop at Safeway you could be giving to the church. When you shop at participating merchants, such as American Airlines, Budget Rent A Car, Chevron, Eddie Bauer, Office Max, Payless Shoe Source, Spiegel, Nature's and Wild Oats Natural Markets, and soon, Safeway, you can help support The Swedenborgian Church of Puget Sound. It's easy and costs you nothing. Just take a few minutes to go on-line to www.escrip.com (NOTE: No "T") and click on "enroll now" to register your Safeway Club Card, credit and debit cards and Chevron card. Every time you shop at one of the participating merchants using your registered card, a percentage of the purchase will be given to the church. It's easy, private, secure and a great way to support the church. Click here: www.escrip.com then click "enroll now" to register!

Food Needed - Especially Now!

Please continue to bring cans of food or other non-perishable items to church each week. Even one item can make a difference to someone who doesn't have enough to eat. Members of our own congregation are being helped by this program. What is left over goes to Hopelink food bank in Kirkland. Just one can makes a difference to someone who doesn't have enough to eat.

Job Jar

We still have opportunities available!

Our church needs help in a whole bunch of areas. If everyone did something it would make things much easier on the few who do a lot and on the minister. So, here is a Job Jar full of fulfilling things to do. We need someone to clean the closet. You will receive the Swedenborgian Medal of Honour for this. We need computer folks. Anyone who is computer savvy that can come into the office once in a while to help us figure things out and fix little things that don’t work. Change the letter board board on Saturdays. Set up on Sundays. Clean up on Sundays.
