Other Announcements:
With your safety and the consideration of others in mind:
• When preparing to attend worship service, please confirm that you and your family do not have a fever. If you have had a fever in the last 48 hours, please do not attend.
• Please sanitize your hands with soap or sanitizer, and utilize the hand-sanitizing stations located throughout the building.
• Please continue to wear a face mask during the more crowded times of entering and exiting the building, and practice social distancing.
• Please alert the church office if you test positive for COVID-19 within two weeks of attending an “in-person” worship service or another event.
• Walnut Street has a cleaning policy in place to disinfect the building prior to and after worship assemblies. We also have a plan to communicate with the congregation, when appropriate, precautions that can be taken so we can safely continue to meet.
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). 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.
Please join us for a Drive-By Bridal Shower honoring Macey Bear, bride-elect of Eric Zuller, Sunday, September 13 from 1-2:30 PM. Macey is registered at Bed, Bath and Beyond and Amazon.com.

During these days, many of our people are relying on technology, some more than usual.

Reading for today: “You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people’s feet.
14 “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that[a] they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven. Matthew 5:13-16 (His Life Devotional Book page 207)
