Congratulatory letter from Monsignor Steenson.
Dear Father Stainbrook,
 
May God bless you and the good people of Saint Timothy's on the first anniversary of your reception into the Catholic Church. I rejoice with you on this occasion, and thank God for your leadership, courage, and faith, and the fact that Saint Timothy's is a vibrant and flourishing community of the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter. As we move together into a future filled with hope,  be assured of my prayers for continued blessings
 upon your ministry, Saint Timothy's witness to Christ in Fort Worth, and the men, women, and children which make your community a Spirit-filled family of faith.
 
Sincerely yours in Christ,
 
Monsignor Jeffrey N. Steenson

On February 26, 2012, Bishop Kevin Vann delivered an Address to the people of St. Timothy's Ordinariate Catholic Community and friends in quite a dramatic way. This amazing and heart-felt work was prepared, by Bishop Vann, as though it was written by St. Paul the Apostle to the people of St. Timothy's.
