| | | | | Confirmation is a day in our church body when we celebrate the faith bound in some of our young people. We have been hearing their testimonies over the past months and today we hear the faith stories bound in some of the people of Scripture too. Each of the stories told can encourage and inspire us but none of them will lead us to our eternal home. So let us together with all the confirmands and all the saints set are eyes on Jesus today who will. |

| | | Who is the greatest? It’s a debate in sports circles, artist circles, fashion circles, and beyond. Even within the Scriptures, these debates are found: is Moses the greatest or is Abraham, is the law the greatest, or is grace even greater? On Sundays through May 11th, we will walk together through the book of Hebrews in a series called “Greater is He.” This book is a letter written to the church in Israel as they struggled to grasp the fullness of God’s victory in Christ. Chapter after chapter, we will see that Jesus is indeed greater than all things, all people, all promises. So join us by reading, worshiping, and being grounded in this eternal truth. Indeed, “Greater is He!” |

Returning to Kansas City in 2023, he served as Director of Technology for SVN Charter School before joining Timothy this month.

Come experience the Lord’s Prayer in a whole new way. On your journey, you will use all five of your senses to learn more about the prayer Jesus taught. There will be no physical guide along your path. How you experience each step along the way is up to you. However, there will be an M.A.P. of sorts for you to follow. At each of the nine stations, there will be three things for you to do: M – meditate, A – an activity, and P – Prayer.
The Prayer Journey will be open from 9 AM – 3 PM with timed entry slots available every 20 minutes. You are free to move at your own pace, either individually or as a family. All ages are welcome. Come and join us. You won’t regret it. |
