Pentecost Progressive Dinner
June 9th
whole_family_at_dinner.jpg
On the first Pentecost, the people had gathered together in Jerusalem to celebrate and worship for the Feast of the Harvest, and then the Holy Spirit came and sent the people back into the world with the message of the Gospel. 
This Pentecost we will gather for worship, then we will start a celebration feast and then be sent out.
We will have a dinner that will begin here at Timothy and then we will go out to three homes to finish the meal. We hope that this is a way for us to get to know each other better and celebrate with each other. 
On June 9th after the second service, please join us in the gym as we start our Pentecost Progressive Dinner.

Congratulations Ashley!
Ashley Myers will be installed as Director of Christian Education at Grace – Knoxville on June 23, 2019. Ashley and her family (Rick, Terri, Amanda and Alisse) are long-time members. Ashley was confirmed at Timothy. Her confirmation verse is “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope” Jeremiah 29:11, She is a graduate of Word of Life Lutheran School and Lutheran High School South Class of 2014. She attended Concordia University Texas, where she completed the DCE Program.
Ashley was a very active member of our church and youth group. She participated in the National Youth Gathering, Servant Events of Mission Possible & Joyful Hearts Camp, and many other youth events. If there was a youth event, she was very enthusiastically a part of it! She also served the congregation in many ways, including VBS and Mother’s Day Out. 
As a member of Timothy, Ashley was enthusiastic about people and her faith, displayed leadership and teamwork, and had a great, cheerful personality and good sense of humor! Timothy was instrumental in her growth, and now we want to continue to support Ashley and let her know how proud we are of her. There is a BIG CARD of congratulations to Ashely which will be going around Sunday. Please take a moment to sign the card. We will send it with her family so she will receive it on her installation. 
Ashley is the first of my many years of youth to become a DCE. Please join me in praying for her new vocation, adjustment to life in Knoxville, and her ministry. We thank God for preparing her here among us, and for the calling He has given her, and for the lives He will touch through her many gifts and faith!
