As the Partners in the Gospel strategic pastoral planning effort moves ahead, Archbishop Paul D. Etienne and other archdiocesan leaders are considering data that provides a clearer idea of the challenges facing priests, parishes, parishioners and schools in the Archdiocese of Seattle.

This information was gathered by a company called PartnersEdge, using archdiocesan records and reports from parishes. Find out more about the Catholic Church in Western Washington below.

You can read the full report and a recorded presentation about the data at archseattle.org/partners.
