Welcome to St. Joseph Catholic Church
Annual Catholic Appeal
What is the Annual Catholic Appeal (ACA) and why is it so important? The ACA is a combined effort between the Archdiocese of Seattle and its many parishes to support a vibrant Catholic Community in Western Washington and carry out the mission of the Church. The ACA funds Catholic social ministries, programs for youth and young adult ministries, Catholic Schools, faith programs, plus administrative support for parishes such as liturgy guidance, evangelization, human resources, and much more.

Jesus Thirst: the Miracle of the Eucharist
Showing at Regal Issaquah Highlands Theater June 4 & 5!
Deep within each human soul, there exists an intense craving for connection, purpose, and love — a thirst that only God can satisfy. Yet, the question remains: How does one fulfill this yearning? The Catholic Church teaches that the Eucharist is the most profound means by which God shares Himself with humanity. In Jesus Thirsts: The Miracle of the Eucharist, we embark on a global journey to rediscover and revive the transformative power of the Eucharist. This exploration makes it unmistakably clear that the Eucharist is not merely a symbol, but is indeed Jesus Christ Himself — fervently desiring to quench our spiritual thirst with His boundless love.
Join your fellow parishioners at the theater on June 4 at 4pm or go to any of the showings you’re able to attend! Tickets are available through the Issaquah Highlands Theater.
All Middle School and High School youth are invited to attend with our youth group on June 5 at 7pm. More details and registration available on our Youth Formation page.
