Rev. Don McDowell was appointed
in 1975 to start a new church on the North Shore. The first service
was held on July 13. St. Timothy on the North Shore was chartered
on September 21, 1975 with 101 charter members. For those early years,
services were conducted in a warehouse on Industry Lane.
The first building to be constructed
at the present location was the Fellowship Hall. Services began in
the Fellowship Hall on Easter Sunday, April 15, 1979. An educational
building was added on November 1982. On May 14, 1989, services began
in the newly completed sanctuary. The church received its first associate
pastor (Rev. Martha Pleasant) in June 1992.
Five years later, on October 8, 1994,
the Activities building was completed. The congregation is still
enjoying membership growth, and an expansion program to enlarge the sanctuary,
increase Sunday school space, and add parking space is underway. |
