THANKS to Marjorie Schmeerbauch
The Council thanks Marjorie Schmeerbauch for all the work that she has done for Timothy since she became Treasurer two years ago. Working with the help of a consulting report that the Council commissioned in Fall 2016, she made major adjustments in the ways in which we track expenditures and revenues. She also worked closely with the Finance Committee to draft a variety of financial policies.
Marjorie is stepping down as treasurer as of April 1. Council is seeking someone who would be willing to take up that position. With the addition of a part-time bookkeeper, the position should take considerably less time in the future. Please contact Judith Meyer, or one of the Pastors if you would like to talk further about the position.

ENJOY THE CONVENIENCE OF ELECTRONIC GIVING
We want to remind you that Timothy offers electronic giving as a way to automate your regular weekly offering. Electronic giving offers convenience for you and provides much needed donation consistency for our congregation.

As you prayerfully plan your future contributions, please consider electronic giving by:
2. Click on the Online Giving button,
3. Click on the Create Profile button, then
4. Follow the onscreen instructions to create an online profile and to schedule your recurring contributions.
