Higher, Deeper, Wider
The mission of St. Timothy is to Follow Jesus and Make a Difference.  Following Jesus changes our perspective.
It changes our relationships.  And it changes our actions.  The love of Christ compels us to live differently.

Ephesians 3:17-18 says, “And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ.”
We believe that as we follow Jesus, He takes our vision Higher as we focus on Him in our worship and prayer. He takes us Deeper in our relationship with Him and others as we dig into the Word of God and build relationships that are rooted in Christ. Jesus takes us Wider as He sends us into our community and world to share His love with others.  Join us as we look at how we live this out individually, at church, and in our community.

Sacrament of Holy Communion

Communion is celebrated on the 1st and 3rd Sunday of each month. 

As Lutheran Christians, we practice “close communion” which means as you come to the Lord’s Supper you affirm that Jesus is your Savior and Lord, and you believe His Body and Blood are truly present “in, with, and under” the bread and wine and you desire to serve Him faithfully in the fellowship of the church.  At St. Timothy we use both the Individual Cup and the Common Cup at each Communion Service. We share the following beliefs as we celebrate the Lord’s Supper:

  • I believe that Jesus Christ is God’s Son and my personal Savior.
  • I believe that I am sinful without hope of eternal life except for God’s mercy in Christ.
  • I confess my sins to God and ask for His forgiveness.
  • I believe that Christ is personally present in this Sacrament and through His Body and         Blood,  He forgives all my sins & remembers them no more.
  • I ask for the power of the Holy Spirit to live a God-pleasing life.
Special Services through the year:
 
 
Service of Prayer and Healing:
On the second Wednesday of each month at 6:30 pm, we have a Service of Prayer and Healing. This service starts with a brief time of musical worship then leads into an extended time of prayer with our gifted prayer team. We invite anyone who needs prayer for themselves or a loved one – whether for healing, employment, mended relationships, or any other burden you are carrying. The prayer service is help during our Wednesday night “Pit Stop” activities, so come early for dinner before the service. For more information on Pit Stop, CLICK HERE
