Jr. Warden Update

We were blessed to start the year with John Pitts as our Jr. Warden. However, John is needing to step down and has asked Steve Freemen to take his place. So, join me in welcoming Steven Freemen as our new Jr. Warden. Newly retired, Steve brings with him a wealth of experience from his work at Dow. 

Beatles Mass

April 14, 10:30am

Please mark your calendars for the first ever St. Timothy's Beatles Mass. You are encouraged to wear your retro 60's and 70's clothes for this special event.

Note that for this week only, the service will not be live streamed due to copyright laws.

The Spirit of God is moving in surprising ways at St. Timothy’s. On the same weekend, both Pastor Robin and her husband, David, and Gwen and Jeff Klorer all had the same idea- let's have a Beatles Mass!

For Robin and David, it was hearing the tune: “Here comes the Sun” playing in Pastor Robin’s head as they traveled with a beautiful sunrise in the background. That song, it turns out, is all about Hope. David had seen a Jazz mass with contemporary music in Louisiana. By the end of their drive, they found themselves saying we should consider a mass with contemporary songs at St. Timothy’s.

That same day, Gwen sent Pastor Robin and Andrea Hutchison an email proposing a Beatles Mass.

This unusual mass will not only be a great excuse to invite family and friends but to reach out to unchurched folk. An added bonus? It will give our Organist and Choir Director a much deserved Sunday off.

We hope you might come and help us show hospitality to those who come to see and hear God maybe for the first time in a while.

Kairos Clemens #30

This past weekend Jim Cutshall, Rich Tillman, Ron Weeks, and Steve Freemen were part of a 27-man crew (supported by an additional outside crew) that conducted Kairos #30 at the Clemens Unit in Brazoria. This spring retreat and one just like it every fall is a 4-day event which is very similar to an Emmaus Walk or Cursillo but for those who are incarcerated. This time 42 attendees (the maximum) heard 10 Christian talks and additional meditations. After each talk the table families consisting of 6 attendees and 3 outside volunteers discussed what they heard and how it related to where they are on their Christian walk.

Fortunately, this time there were no disruptions (last time they had an escape late Friday night which delayed completion) and the weekend went off without a hitch. We would like to thank all those at St. Timothy’s who prayed for the weekend and those who filled out prayer chain links. You can hear more about the weekend including Ron Weeks’ reflections during the sermon on Sunday.

Wanted: Church Directory Photos

Have you looked at your directory photo lately? The directory is a valuable tool for welcoming new members and helping them know who's who. Many of your photos are missing or are extremely outdated. If your family falls into one of those categories, please ask someone to snap a photo and send it in to the church office. (Nothing fancy - smart phone photos are great!)

The church directory app is called Instant Church Directory. You must be in the directory and have a valid email account to connect. You can also request a printed copy of the directory from the church office, (office@stimothy.org.)
