The Adult Bible Study will continue its study of The Letters of First and Second Peter on Wednesday, January 25th at 7 PM in the parlor. Please bring your Bible and join us for the study of these letters to the church in which we are to examine the place of “holy living” in the life of the Christian, the demands of Christian discipleship, the place of “elders” in the Church and the call to humility and endurance.

Please mark your calendars for our Workshop on the Eucharist on January 29th and 30th. The workshop will be conducted in three sessions by Bill Ryon, a layman from the Washington, DC area and a member of St. Paul’s parish in Washington. The purpose of the workshop is to learn more about how Christ is truly present in the Eucharist and to gain more of an understanding about how our worship on Sunday, with the Eucharist at its center, relates to Christ’s presence in us and how it affects our actions. The three sessions will be held at 4 PM and 7 PM on Sunday and at 7 PM on Monday. Dinner will be provided between the sessions on Sunday.

We have received 214 pledge cards in the amount of $281,859.66. If you have yet to pledge, you may pick up a pledge card in the narthex, complete it, and place it in the alms basin at the offertory. We thank every good and faithful parishioner who completed a 2012 pledge card and look forward to contacting all other parishioners who have yet to commit a pledge to St. Timothy’s for 2012.
