FaithMobile in the Northwest
The FaithMobile is an independent Catholic ministry designed to educate, evangelize and enrich the faith of Western Washington. Our converted ‘bookmobile’ attends private and public events throughout the Archdiocese of Seattle. Our mission is to bring Catholic traditions and resources to as many households as possible; our vivid vehicle helps us evangelize every time we’re on the road
We are a non-profit ministry working in partnership with our tenant, Alleluia Catholic Store, which sells Catholic Bibles, Catechisms, books, rosaries, and gifts on board.
Are you approved by the Archdiocese of Seattle?
While we are not funded or operated by the Archdiocese, we operate with their approval and blessing. (Literally – Bishop Eusebio Elizondo himself blessed the FaithMobile when it first came to Western Washington.)
Faithfulness to Catholic teaching and practices is essential to our mission.
Aren’t you just a commerical store?
FaithMobile Ministries is a registered non-profit designed to get Catholic resources out where they are wanted and needed to grow Catholic faith in Washington.
We partner with Alleluia Catholic Stores, which retains profits from merchandise sold on board. It is our goal to keep Catholic resources accessible and available to all. Funds from your purchases keep ‘sticks and bricks’ Catholic stores available in some local communities, and by shopping on the FaithMobile, you help us reach people who couldn’t or wouldn’t patronize stores which are inconvenient or inaccessible.
