St. Timothy's Episcopal Church

Our Mission

The parish of St. Timothy’s Episcopal Church is working to build a vibrant, exciting community where Christ is exalted and worshiped. Where discipleship is the result of a loving relationship.

“We are a Christian community, a faithful people striving to do God’s work by moving beyond ourselves and reaching out to others. We seek to serve God in such ways that the Love of Jesus might be seen through us.”

Our History

The parish of St. Timothy’s Episcopal Church is more than two decades old and is the result of the merger of two smaller congregations.

In 1982, Bishop Maurice ‘Ben’ Benitez of the Diocese of Texas issued a direction that two Episcopal congregations should merge and become one. All Saints Episcopal Church in Galena Park and St. Simon and St. Jude Episcopal Church of North Shore merged in June of that year under the name of St. Simon and All Saints.

After a year of parish meetings and prayerful consideration, the congregation voted to change the name to St. Timothy’s Episcopal Church. The name was chosen from a list of three given to the congregation by Bishop Benitez.
