Fr. Gary Zender, Pastor

Greetings in Christ Jesus!

Thank you for visiting St. Anthony Parish's website. I have been pastor here since 1999 and have grown in many ways through the witness to the love of God by many faithful parishioners. Each year we become more clear of our direction and mission as a parish. I would like to share with you some words that I read recently that were helpful:

One could say that the parish is truly a parish when it helps each and every individual to discover and realize his (or her) Christian vocation. ~~ Pope John Paul II

Are you ready to discover your Christian vocation? Each one of us was created by God for a reason. We at St. Anthony would love to help you on that journey. That is how we find our true happiness and joy!

Please feel free to e-mail at garyzender@st-anthony.cc or call me at 425-277-6193. There are many ways for you to grow in faith and love.

I also have important duties in the Archdiocese as the Vicar of Charities overseeing the Catholic Community Services and Catholic Housing Services,
