UPCOMING EVENTS

St. Tim's Monthly Potluck & Game Night

Saturday, February 1, 6pm

Parish Hall

St. Tim's Game Night is rebranding as a Potluck & Game Night (and who doesn't love a potluck?!) On the first Saturday of every month, a crew gets together to play board and card games, eat tasty food, and hang out with one another. ALL ages are welcome. Bring food and games to share!

February's Potluck & Game Night will be themed around the Superbowl! Cincinnati (sadly) didn't make it to the playoffs, but we can still root for our (other) favorite teams!! Wear your team's colors and be ready to play as hard as they do!

Our beloved Rev. Alice is a Game Board Librarian and had this to say about why games are important:

"The thing is, we still need play as adults, whether it’s telling jokes or a sports league or board gaming. We get stuck in the seriousness of the world and need the release of play. To be fair, there’s heavy stuff happening in the world and close to home—there are real problems that need to be taken seriously if we are going to heal. But delight and play help heal us as well. In a world where we are increasingly separate, where we struggle to find ways to talk to each other, whether it’s because of a political disagreement or simply because we don’t know each other yet, play can bring us together. Meet some new people, play new games, change the world, maybe. " (Quote from The Power of Play — Free Parking )

Kids & their People

Sundays, 10:20am

At our usual time of 10:20am, meet us in the Gathering Space and follow the sound of the bells downstairs--the Littles will be in Room 2 and the Bigs in Room 4.

We'll be exploring the story of Jesus calling some weird dudes to be his followers. Come and see!

AROUND THE PARISH

Support for Immigrants

“For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me.” Matthew 25:35

In November 2024, in cooperation with several other Cincinnati churches, St. Timothy’s began co-sponsoring a refugee family. We sent $2000 to this Sanctuary Coalition to help with the family’s expenses and we have a church member on the weekly support call. A small group of St. Tim’s folk are brainstorming how else God is moving among immigrants in Cincinnati and how we can help. If you’re interested in this conversation, please email Althea Kearney at thekearneys@live.com.

Unfortunately, there are multiple scam emails being sent to parishioners. The perpetrators have emails with Roger's and Alice's name in them and have gone as far as taking his photo from our website. They can be convincing, but beware - they are scams. There isn't anything we can do about the impersonators except to flag the email as a fake account. If this happens to you, please report the email in your inbox.

Remember: Our clergy will NEVER email you asking for money or gift cards. ALL official correspondence from clergy will come from the @SaintTimothys.com address ONLY.

Be careful online - always check and double-check your links and accounts.
