St Tim's Spotlight
Taken from the Weekly Bulletin's Worthy of NotePractical Planning" - Please come to an informative event: "Practical Planning.” Please come at noon, today in the Parish Hall to learn, ask questions, and enjoy a light lunch. Two speakers will include what should be in your will, checklists for end of life issues, and devoting part of your estate to your church. Our first speaker, Dianne Johnson, heads a thriving legal practice, specializing in estate and business succession, planning, probate and trust litigation. She also has been raising funds for civic, faith-based and social services organizations for over 15 years. Her co-presenter will be Shanise Evans, an attorney and Vice President with Bank of America, who has a background in estate planning and charitable gift planning. The Endowment Committee believes this will be an interesting and enjoyable session.
At the Adult Forum on March 7, James Kimmey, M.D., will speak on “Health Care Reform-American Style.” Proposals for the reform of the American health care system have been considered by Congress for more than fifty years. Dr. James Kimmey, president of the Missouri Foundation for Health and a nationally prominent advocate for reform, will discuss the status of legislation and its implications for patients, health care professionals and society at large.
UTO thought of the week: We are thankful for those who offer themselves in charity and outreach to those in need. II Colossians 9:11-12 “You will be enriched in every way for your great generosity, which will produce thanksgiving to God through us; for the rendering of this ministry not only supplies the needs of the saints but also overflows with many thanksgivings to God.”
