Thank You from Angela Wainaina
Thank you to the families of St. Timothy’s for their support of the displaced people in Kenya. The donations of clothing, shoes, towels and many other items were sent to the Catholic African Ministry here in the Triangle, in cooperation with Baraka Women’s Group, and then sent to Kenya. Words cannot express how grateful I am to the families of St. Timothy’s. I was overwhelmed by the generous response. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Youth Group Meeting
The Youth Group will meet on Sunday, April 6th from 4 to 6 PM. All 6th – 12th graders are invited to join us.
Parish Breakfast
The Youth Group will sponsor a breakfast on Sunday, April 6th from 10:00 to 10:45 AM. We invite everyone to come for a delicious start to the day and a chance for those who attend different services to come together for fellowship. This is a wonderful opportunity to have a relaxing Sunday morning and leave the cooking up to the Youth Group. This month we are featuring a new menu item – Sweet Potato Pancakes! This “secret” recipe was given to us by a chef from a famous diner in Blowing Rock, and you will want to try this tasty treat! Enjoy fellowship and a good meal while supporting a good cause!
