ST. TIMOTHY OUTDOOR MASSES
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
1.) Q: If I don't sign up for Mass, may I attend?
A: The simple answer is No. If your name is not on the list* it will be assumed there is not a seat saved for you. However, if someone shows up and they have not reserved a spot and there is an open seat(s) 5 minutes before Mass is to start then you may fill that open spot...
2.) Q: Do I need a consent form for every Mass?
A: Yes. Each person who attends Mass must provide a signed form for every Mass that they attend. For your convenience there is a downloadable Consent form on our Website, www.sttims.us as well as on your Flocknote.
3.) Q: Will the bathrooms be available?
A: No. Please take care of your needs before you come.
4.) Q: If I show up late (after Mass has already started) & I have reserved a spot may I still get in?
A: Unfortunately, we are not able to hold any spots. As mentioned above, we may have given your spot away.
4.) Q: When may I sign up for the weekend Mass I want to attend?
A: Online Reservations are open on Wednesdays at 10:00 am through Saturday at 12:00 pm for the coming weekend. Phone Reservations are open on Wednesdays at 10:00 am through Friday at 12:00 pm. Folks that would like to sit together must be part of the same household.
5.) Q: May I sign up for more than one weekend at a time?
A: No. I understand the benefit and the convenience of that but we are just taking signups one weekend at a time. This gives everyone an opportunity to sign up.
6.) Q: May I bring a friend?
A: If your “friend” is not living in your household, they will need to register on their own.
7.) Q: If I am in line when Mass starts, can I still attend?
A: As long as you are in line, yes.

In light of the state orders for staying at home here are some directives to help with the celebration of sacraments from the San Francisco Archdiocese Office of Worship and Office of Faith Formation.
INITIATIONS
We were all hopeful that the shelter-in-place would be removed and that we could celebrate the Baptismal Liturgy normally done at the Easter Vigil on the Vigil of Pentecost. With the extended shelter-in-place order, this will not be possible. We are discussing a new common date for initiations. We will let you know what is decided.
CONFIRMATIONS
Faith Formation Confirmation will take place Saturday, August 15th, 2020 outdoors in front of St. Timothy School at 10:00 a.m. For questions, please contact Ana Park at 650-218-4876
ADULT CONFIRMATIONS
The adult Confirmations normally held on Pentecost Sunday at the Cathedral have been cancelled. We are looking for a new date at the cathedral and will let you know as soon as we find it.
FIRST COMMUNIONS
First Communion will take place Saturday, August 29th, 2020 at 10:00 a.m. outdoors in front of St. Timothy School. For questions, please contact Ana Park at 650-218-4876
Dear St. Tim’s Family,
Greetings!
I hope this letter finds you healthy and safe. Together with the rest of the world during this pandemic, we find ourselves reeling with the fast-paced turn of events as we are managing our health, well being and financial obligations. During these unprecedented times, our St. Timothy Church is challenged and is hit with a financial uncertainty. I implore you, my dear family, to help us weather this hardship so we can keep our church in serving and nourishing our faith.
As it has been communicated, we are in a financial crisis. In the past few months, especially from February through June, our average monthly collection was $13,979.00. So, with our estimated monthly budget at 49,197.00, our average monthly loss is $35,218.
In an effort to raise funds in full support of our Church, we agreed to proceed with our much loved and highest fundraising event, our Sixth Annual St. Timothy Walk-a-Thon, on September 19, 2020. Your participation will surely help our parish. Our goal is to keep everyone safe during this walk and every effort will be made to adhere to our local and state guidelines. As we plan, we will keep you updated with the details and logistics of the event. Please stay tuned.
In the meantime, you may now-
- Sign up and register for the St. Timothy Walk-a-Thon. Registration fee is $25 per person. While we understand that you may not be able to walk due to some circumstances or restrictions, still your registration fee will be much appreciated.
- Send your donation or sponsor somebody. Any amount is welcomed and appreciated. You may go to our St. Timothy webpage (https://sttims.us/) under donations- Parish Walk-a-Thon, or mail your check to our office.
Thank you for your continued support to the Church. We look forward to a successful St. Timothy 2020 Walk-a-Thon.
Sincerely yours, Fr. Al
Imagine an enhanced place for learning and where we connect with one another in fellowship and celebration.

A Place to Connect
Our renewed Parish Center/School Gymnasium will be a place where, under one roof, we connect with one another for school activities and instill team work and camaraderie through athletic games and events.
A Place to Celebrate
Our renewed Parish Center/School Gymnasium will be a place where community and fellowship comes alive. Imagine a place for parish and school fund raisers, a teen dance; or, an event celebrating your child’s graduation.

Archdiocesan Annual Appeal
The Archdiocesan Annual Appeal (AAA) provides parishioners throughout our Archdiocese a unique opportunity to come together. Through the AAA, the over ninety parishes in our Archdiocese unite as one!
The AAA is essential to the work of the Archdiocese of San Francisco. Although we are spread over the counties of Marin, San Francisco, and San Mateo, we are one Archdiocese, collaborating in the ongoing mission of evangelization and education.
The theme for this year's Annual Appeal is
"Use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace." Together we are able to demonstrate our faith through the AAA by supporting such critical needs as youth and young adults, parish schools and students, social ministries, ecumenical efforts, and the greater Church.
We ask your help in instilling in the hearts of Catholics throughout the Archdiocese a true sense of stewardship and a recognition that our family of faith extends beyond our individual parish families.
Our 2020 Assessment is $63,671...thanking you in advance for doing your part!
