The Golden Deeds ministry is collecting gallon storage bags during the month of June. Each month this ministry collects a different item to be shared with the homeless of our community. Look for the collection bin in the Gathering Room.

Starting this past Sunday at 10 am we began posting a new on-line resource for Walnut Street children. The title is “Bible Stories” and can actually be enjoyed by the whole family. “Bible Stories” features an artist, our own Rachel Hedge, creating a picture while a Bible story is shared. The videos vary in length from about 10 to 20 minutes and provide an opportunity for our children to have their own weekly Bible lesson. The first series is The Life of Christ produced by StudyJesus.com. The videos will post on Facebook and WSCOC.com and can be viewed at your convenience. Be watching for Bible Stories.

We are excited to report that Bud Lambert is increasing the number of counseling sessions offered for Walnut Street members. There is still a waiting list, however the wait time will be shorter. Also, please note that sessions with Bud will be online only during the month of June. The counseling office can be reached at 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.

Reading for today: 22 And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb. 23 And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb. 24 By its light will the nations walk, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it. Revelation 21:22-24 (His Life Devotional Book page 138)
