Thank you for joining us today. Please join us for refreshments and fellowship following the service. PRAYER REQUESTS? The Intercessory Prayer List is at the Welcome Table near the entrance. In prayer we offer praise and thanksgiving, ask for guidance, pray for others, and remember the departed. Please feel free to add your petitions to the Prayer list. Shining our Light: Annual Giving 2020 ANNUAL PLEDGE CARDS NOW AVAILABLE How would “generosity” be transformed if we remembered what Jesus is always calling us to do? As a faith community, we are indeed called to establish new priorities for ourselves and the church. Our 2020 annual pledge drive is more than funding the church’s budget. Rather, it is a change for transforming how we look at our calling as Christians. Prayerfully consider a commitment to St Timothy’s Episcopal Church and return your pledge card in the envelope to the office or place it in the offering plate. 2019 PLEDGES, FLOWER FUND, AND YEAR END GIFTS: Thank you all for your generosity in 2019. St Timothyʻs is wrapping up our budget year so thank you for sending your 2019 commitments toward Annual Giving, the Flower Fund, or other designated offering.
