Timothy's Ministry, We Are Family

Come to me all of you who are weary and burdened,
and I will give you rest.
Matthew 11:28

 

BACKGROUND
(By Marian Alvarado)

Timothy's Ministry first began in December 2002 as God's answer to my prayer after I cried out to God on my knees the day before my son Tim's birthday (Tim passed away the year before). I remember saying, "Help me, God, if only I could have had the simple joy of baking Tim a cake, what I would have given." Click on "Stories" in the top navigation bar to read how it all began.

Fridays: 9:00 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. (breakfast, lunch, Bible study, clothing, bus passes, housing assistance, Job/housing/ID applications, fellowship)

Purpose: To provide a safe, loving, and encouraging place for people struggling with homelessness to gather and experience the love of God through Jesus and the truth that they are not alone. There is prayer, conversation, sharing, Bible Study, delicious food, and support with housing, shelters, I.D.s, and love of a family.

I often refer to Tim's House as "God's heartbeat" because there is so much love in this place. People are so grateful to come together and always say 'there is no place like Tim's House' and I know this is because of the presence and love of God in our midst! Everyone helps each other at Tim's House and we have become a family where newcomers are always welcome!
