Service & Stewardship
There are several opportunities at St. Timothy to serve and thereby practice good stewardship of the time, abilities, and resources with which God has blessed us. As Christians, we strive to be faithful and generous stewards of the gifts God has given us. God invites us to give our lives away, both to create a more just and peaceful world, and to transform our own hearts and minds.

The Board of Elders assists the Pastor in all matters pertaining to the spiritual welfare of the congregation. To accomplish this, they connect with the members of the congregation and identify situations where special support, prayer, or pastoral involvement may be needed to help an individual or family through a difficult time. In addition they pray for and encourage the pastor as they are responsible for his spiritual, emotional, and physical health and welfare.
