Welcome to Saint Timothy's Episcopal Church. The mission congregation was founded in 1946 and named in honor St. Timothy, companion of St. Paul, whose feast day is January 26.
The present building was constructed in several steps, the first part (chapel) finished in 1954, with redwood exterior siding and mahogany paneling on the walls of the chapel.
In the chapel, the beamed ceiling is based on a county parish in the Church of England. It was designed and built under the direction of Elmer Rapraeger at the present site on land given by Warren and Ruth Smith. Members if the congregation joined together in raising funds and volunteering labor.
An addition , begun in 1981, doubled the usable space and added public meeting rooms. In 2000 work was begun to extend the Chapel to provide additional seating. The new sanctuary was designed by Michael Crowe and constructed by Don Horton .

The organ was upgraded in 1990.
