| When we have an abundance, it makes it a little easier to be generous. But the truth of the matter is generosity at times is going to cost us something. Boaz’s offer to redeem Ruth comes with some serious costs, costs our Lord knows all about. As we encounter this climax to the story, we also must consider what it means to give generously even when it costs us. |

What is it? A piano? An organ? The answer is “YES” to both, and it is many other instrumental sounds in between! Timothy’s music ministry is asking for your help to purchase a new instrument to be used at both the 9 am contemporary service and the 10:30 am traditional service at Timothy. This new digital keyboard - Yamaha Clavinova - has a wide variety of instrumental settings and features that will really “Raise the Praise”, adding richness and variety to both of our worship services. You can donate toward our goal of $10,000 by clicking the button to donate or write “Raise the Praise” on your envelope. |

Indulge your sweet tooth this Sunday, February 9, with delicious treats from the Lutheran Women’s Missionary League (LWML) bake sale! Known as “Bites for Mites,” these goodies include a tempting assortment of breads, cookies, candies, and - if you’re early - maybe even a pie to take home.
With Super Bowl Sunday on the same day, it’s the perfect chance to grab some snacks to enjoy during the big game while cheering on your favorite team!
Proceeds from the sale support LWML’s “mite” offerings, inspired by the Biblical story of the widow’s mite (Luke 21:1-4). |
|
|  | These small contributions, above and beyond regular congregational support, combine to fund millions of dollars in mission grants at the district and national levels.
Stop by the lobby on Sunday morning, February 9, to grab your treats and make a difference! |
