Rev. Dr. Tim Thompson

Rev. Dr. Tim Thompson serves as Associate Pastor of St. Stephen's Lutheran Church in West Saint Paul. His ministry is focused on helping the church awaken to the immense changes taking place in our days, and embrace the practices and perspectives that are being called for in response. His most recent work has been in developing "Giveaways," where congregations host events that look like Rummage Sales but offer all the items for free to the community. Through these acts of generosity, churches serve - and meet - their neighbors and relational bridges are being built.

Since then her role has expanded. In September 2022 she officially became part of the Augsburg University nursing faculty as an Adjunct Lecturer in the Bachelors of Science Nursing program. Timaka’s advocacy, nursing scholarship, and passion lies within the vulnerable populations of adult psychiatric mental health, addiction studies, transcultural nursing and integrative health-healing modalities that uphold and improve human potential across care settings and care systems.

She is an official candidate for the Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner Board Certification.
