Before Jesus asks anything of His disciples, He gives them peace and forgiveness. Forgiveness flows from resurrection, not resolve.
We forgive because forgiveness has already been spoken over us.

Did you notice the VBS Rainforest Falls donation board that went up in the lobby last week? We invite our Timothy family to help make VBS 2026: Rainforest Falls – Exploring the Nature of God a joyful and meaningful experience through donations. One special way to support VBS this year is by choosing to Adopt a VBS Student. This option helps cover the cost of supplies and materials for a child attending VBS, ensuring every student can participate fully in this exciting week of learning and fun. Simply stop by the lobby, grab a donation tag, and return the requested item or contribution. Every donation, whether supplies or student support, plays an important role in bringing VBS to life. 🗓 All donations are due by June 1, unless other instructions are written on your specific tag. Thank you for your generosity, support, and continued investment in sharing God’s love with our children through VBS! |
