Other Announcements:
Bible Classes to Resume: We are excited to announce that we will resume our Sunday and Wednesday Bible classes beginning this Sunday, September 20, and Wednesday, September 23. Be looking for a CareLine update with a list of all of our classes.
Make plans to join us for a Church-Wide Picnic and Outdoor Worship Service Sunday, September 27! We will gather in our Chestnut Street-side parking lot beginning with a meal at 5 PM, followed by worship at 6 PM. Bring a chair and invite a friend! In an effort to keep everyone safe, the meal for this picnic will be provided. (grilled hot dogs, hamburgers, individual chips, cookies and drinks) There will not be a charge for the meal.
Flu shots will be available at Walnut Street on Friday, September 25 from 9-11 AM. Please call the church office at 615-446-2909 to make an appointment. (appointments will be required)
Thank you for your support of the addition of our 7 am Sunday morning service which is now open to everyone wearing a mask, practicing social distancing, and observing contact precautions when not in the assembly. This expands the opportunities for Sunday worship to three in-person assemblies (7 am, 9 am, 6 pm). As we move about the building, our shepherds ask that in order to best love and honor one another we wear masks. During the 9 AM assembly, 6 PM assembly and Bible classes, masks are optional. Please be in prayer for all of our teachers and students as we resume this blessed time together as a church family. Please continue to pray for an end to the pandemic, for those who are weak or sick, and for those who are healthy that they remain so.
Walnut Street’s Food Pantry is in need of the following food items: canned chicken, canned tuna, Vienna sausage, white beans, pinto beans, and crackers.
If you would like to contact the counseling center regarding an online appointment with Bud Lambert, please call 615-975-2395.
During these days, many of our people are relying on technology, some more than usual. If you need tech support with your tablet, smartphone, laptop, or smart-TV, please email us your question at: askwalnutstreet@wscoc.com. We will do our best to respond personally to your question and help offer support in some way.
