Have you ever seen or done pottery? It takes patience, it takes forming, and reforming. God does the same with His people. We are God’s temples but when we let idolatry come into this space the Lord goes to work reforming us.

Members who submitted 2025 Fall Generosity Emphasis pledges last fall will receive them back on Nov. 2 and 9 by stopping by the Give Commission table in the lobby to pick them up. As you reflect on last year's pledges of your time, talents, and treasures, we pray God has blessed you richly and thank God for your generosity with your Timothy family. Details about the 2026 stewardship process will be emailed to the congregation next Wednesday, Oct. 29. Thank you for prayerfully considering how your family can generously support Timothy's ministries in 2026 and beyond. To God Be the Glory! |

The Tuesday Morning Journeymen Bible Study kicked off a new chapter this week with an introduction to the Book of James. The group now meets at its new location—Royal Biscuit restaurant—where fellowship and faith come together over breakfast and Scripture.
This fresh start offers a meaningful opportunity for men to dive into God’s Word, share life experiences, and grow together in their walk with Christ. The Book of James, known for its practical wisdom and encouragement for living out faith, sets the tone for what promises to be a powerful season of study and connection.
New faces are always welcome—come hungry for both food and faith! |

The GROW Commission is hard at work to revive small group Bible Studies at Timothy. Small groups will provide a way for each one of us to connect with others in our congregation to read and study God’s Word and GROW in our faith. To do that we begin the process of forming small groups of 8-10 to meet weekly in someone’s home or at church. Groups will begin meeting early next year. During late October and early November, Commission members will be available at a table in the lobby to share more information, answer questions, and gather names of people willing to host, lead, or join a small group. Each of these roles looks a little different. Don’t worry or feel uncertain if you’ve never been part of a small group. It’s fun, easy, and uplifting. As members of God’s family, we’re all on this faith journey together! We can encourage and support each other along the way. Wherever you are in your walk or whatever your skills may be, everyone has something to contribute, and each part is important. Stop by the GROW table after services on Sunday morning or contact Mary Reed for more information. |

Cup Half Full We all face challenges in life, some small but some almost overpowering. When those happen, do we see only the negative aspect of how it affects us? How do we respond? Come ready to hear Nancy Nowiszewski, Timothy's former Care Minister, share challenging times from her own life and how her perspective and reliance on her faith helped her not only survive but see how God used these times to draw her closer to Him. |
