Fellowship Groups
Lay-Led Ministry at Epiphany
At Epiphany, relationship is primary. Find a group to make friends, practice a common interest, move along on your spiritual journey, or all of the above. Contact the Rev. Kate Wesch at kwesch@epiphanyseattle.org to learn more and get involved.
The purpose of the Epiphany Women’s Retreat Group is to assist in the spiritual formation and build the community of women of Epiphany Parish. For over 25 years, we have done this by convening monthly weekend retreats to learn together and share fellowship. We look forward to another dynamic year of interesting presenters and fellowship with the other women of Epiphany Seattle.
Please save the dates for the WRG events we have planned so far and look forward to receiving other invitations as events are planned. We look forward to seeing you at WRG meetings, and at Epiphany on Sundays!
For more information, contact Cadence Granados at cgranados@epiphanyseattle.org.

Upcoming Epiphany’s Men’s Ministry Fall Retreat
October 30 – November 1 at Sacred Waters Retreat Center, Hood Canal
Join us for a memorable weekend of connection, reflection, and renewal at the beautiful St. Andrew’s House Retreat Center, perched above the Hood Canal with sweeping views of the Olympic Mountains.
This year we’re especially excited to welcome the Rev. Canon Ivar Hillesland, Canon for Congregations in the Diocese of Olympia and pastor of Church of the Apostles in Seattle. Ivar is an engaging speaker with a gift for connecting faith to everyday life, and we’re looking forward to the encouragement and insight he’ll bring to the weekend.
St. Andrew’s House offers cozy rooms, a classic lodge, and stunning natural surroundings. Enjoy kayaking, hiking, biking (BYO gear), or simply relax in the gardens. Meals by Chef Cody—crafted from local ingredients—are legendary.
Best of all: the people. Epiphany men are warm, wise, and welcoming. Whether you’re new or returning, the friendships formed at the retreat are what make it unforgettable.
Please make sure you are answering all the additional questions while registering. You will get a chance to donate funds (not required). You can make a payment online or by check. (Please make check payable to Epiphany Seattle with memo, Men’s Retreat 2025)
Space is limited. Don’t miss out! Sign up today. Please contact Cadence Granados at cgranados@epiphanyseattle.org if you have any questions or need any assistance.
We hope you’ll join us. It won’t be the same without you.
Sincerely,
The Men’s Ministry Leadership Team
Our 20s and 30s Group is a relaxed, welcoming space for young adults to connect, build friendships, and have fun together. We know that being a young adult can sometimes feel lonely—especially at church—and having people you recognize and feel comfortable with can make all the difference.
This group is a place to find that sense of belonging. We host monthly activities like dinners, karaoke nights, and BBQs, along with other casual outings that make it easy to get to know one another. Whether you’re new or have been around for a while, you’re invited to jump in and join us. For more information and to get connected to our group chat, please email Cadence Granados at cgranados@epiphanyseattle.org.
