St. Timothy's Church Service Times

Sunday Services

Sunday 8:00 am

Sunday 10:00 am

The 8:00am service is a quiet reflective service in the traditional Elizabethan English of the Book of Common Prayer. The congregation is usually around 25 people.

The 10:00am service is our main worship service, incorporating elements of both traditional and contemporary music and liturgy. The services are from the Book of Alternative Services (1985). The whole church community gathers together for the entrance rite and after the children’s talk, the children (age 3 years to high school) go to church school, returning for communion bread and wine. Baptized Christians of all denominations and age are invited to share with us at the Lord’s table. Those not receiving bread and wine are invited to share with us by receiving a blessing.

Weekday Service

Wednesday morning at 10:30: the Eucharist is celebrated in the Parlour/Marsh Room.
