Lumen Speaker & Pub Series

  • Prince of Peace Catholic Newman Center 4502 20th Avenue Northeast Seattle, WA, 98105 United States (map)

Similar to Theology on Tap, a Lumen event is when we host a young adult or outside speaker, but then chant night prayer together (called “Compline”) with the Dominican Friars. This is followed by our social, when we share a refreshing pint of beer or non-alcoholic drink.

The speaker begins at 7pm sharp (plan to arrive a bit early) and the pub social ends at 10pm.

“Come hear a short presentation on the life and importance of Saint Kateri Tekakwitha: North America’s first canonized Native American saint. Though she is already a lesser-recognized saint, what even fewer people know is that the second miracle needed for her canonization took place in our Seattle diocese only 18 years ago. Born in 1656 in Upstate New York, Saint Kateri lived a brief life of intense devotion to Jesus Christ. She owed her faith in large part to the missionary work of the French Jesuits who sailed to the New World, and whose sainthood we recognize under the collective title of the “North "American Martyrs.” Come learn about this amazing saint!Presentation by Anne-Sophie Eizayaga.”

*** If you plan to leave before 10PM, you MUST park at UW parking lot N5 (5 min walk away), or else your car will be double parked in.
