Pastors'
Message
Thanks for taking the time to look
at who we are and what we have to offer.
St. Timothy’s is a congregation
committed to faithfully preaching and teaching the Word of God
and actively supporting each of its members in their faith.
We provide a variety of activities
and opportunities for your involvement and support.
Throughout the year, the specifics
of these web pages will change. You'll find information about
our shared life together as a community of faith. But one thing
will never change, and that is the love God has for you in His
Son, Jesus Christ.
Feel free to take a look at what
we offer and to contact us if there is anything we can do to support
you in your relationship with God..

Church Council
Consisting of members elected by
the congregation, the Church Council is the decision-making body
of the church.
Comprised of several Leadership
Teams, the Council meets the first Tuesday of each month to effect
policies, approve reports and consider the total church program.
The Council also prepares the budget
for the congregation's action, and considers other major items
for referral to the Annual Congregational Meeting.

Our
Beliefs
We believe and confess one
Triune God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We confess Jesus Christ as
Lord and Savior, and the Gospel as the power of God for the salvation
of all who believe.
We believe the Bible to be
the revealed and inspired Word of God, and the authoritative source
of our proclamation, faith, and life.

Our
Mission
To remain faithful to
the Great Commission ("Go and make disciples,"
Matt 28:19-20) and the Great Commandment ("Love one
another," Matt 2:37-40) of our Lord Jesus, in order
that His purposes be carried through us.
Our
Vision
On June 3, 2007, the congregation
of St Timothy Lutheran Church voted to adopt a "2020 Vision."
The double meaning of the title is deliberate: the vision is for
the next 13 years, up to the year 2020; and it is the clearest
picture the congregational leadership has at present of how God
is leading us to grow in the years ahead. The vision statement
reads as follows:
We are a connected
family of believers
worshiping
God
growing
in faith
committed
to serving
with a mission of bringing new believers to
Jesus Christ
