FAQ
Q: Will I need any course materials?
A: Our instructor will arrive with printed materials. Please register ahead of time, so we have enough handouts. If you would like to read about the enneagram, there are a number of books available. Our instructor recommends Richard Rohr’s The Enneagram: A Christian Perspective.
Q: Will I take a test during the workshop to learn my number?
Q: Should I take a test ahead of time?
A: In order to keep the class focused, we will not take an enneagram test during the course, and it is not necessary to take a test beforehand. There are a number of tests available on-line, and students may wish to use them after the course.

Do you have difficulty hearing in the sanctuary? |
St. Timothy’s has two options for electronic assistance for those who may have difficulty hearing the services. We have a hearing loop, also called an induction loop, installed in the sanctuary. If you wear hearing aids that have a Telecoil or “T” setting, activate this setting to enable your hearing aids to receive a signal from the sound system. |
|
|
Alternately, we have small receivers with over-the-ear speakers that receive a signal from the sound system. These are compatible with most “earbuds” that use a 1/8” jack, similar to cell phones, so you can use your own earbuds if you prefer. These receivers are available in the narthex for use during the service. Please return them to the narthex at the end of the service or leave them in the pew. |

Join the Mevo Video Ministry |
St. Timothy's plans to continue offering on-line video worship as a part of our on-going ministry. This is to meet the needs of home-bound members and others who are unable to attend in person.
It is also crucial to our welcome ministry because people see us online before visiting in-person.
Please consider volunteering to help with our video streaming ministry. Training, software and equipment will be provided.
Direct any questions to Sondra Griner.
