Welcome!

Welcome to the website of St. Katherine Orthodox Mission located in downtown Kirkland, Washington. If you are unfamiliar with Orthodoxy or would like to know more, please see the section About Orthodoxy.

A book or collection of texts can only go so far, though. To understand Orthodoxy beyond historical facts and theological truths requires one to experience it. As the Apostle Philip said to Nathanael in John 1:46 "...Come and see."

History

St. Katherine Mission was established by parishioners of St. Spiridon Orthodox Cathedral in Seattle living on the east side of Lake Washington. We are located right across the street from Kirkland City Hall. We have services on Saturday evenings and Sunday mornings every week, as well as on special feast days. All services are in English. Bible study and an Inquirer's class are each held weekly. Bible study is open to anyone regardless of affiliation. The Inquirer's course is open to anybody who has an interest in knowing more about the Orthodox Faith. Please see our ministries page and calendar for details about these and other events.

If you have any questions please contact our priest, Father Barnabas Powell (barnabaspowell@yahoo.com), via the information listed below to the right. We hope you will come and experience the contemporary worship of the early Church!
