Other Announcements:

There is a target date for the 1st week in March to resume ALL Bible classes.

If you would like to share some Valentine’s Day love and encouragement with one or more of Walnut Street’s college students, please contact Lesa (615-430-1293) or Allee Cude and they can provide you with contact information. We’re trying something a little different than our secret pal program, so your recipient can know who sent them a Valentine treat. Following are some COVID friendly shopping ideas: order a gift card with your next grocery pickup/delivery, send an e-gift card via email, pick up a Sonic or DQ gift card through the drive thru, order snacks/treats from Amazon or any online retailer and have them delivered directly to the student.

Between now and Valentine’s Day, students in the CIA group (3rd through 5th grade) will decorate cards to send to those in our church family who are sick and shut in. Supply packets are now available at the Welcome Center for the children to pick up after services. Please drop off decorated cards in the red basket at the Welcome Center so that these can be addressed and mailed. If you know of someone who would benefit from a card, please see Pat Pewitt.
February’s items for the Golden Deeds Ministry are towels/washcloths. These items will be provided to each of our mission house residents when they move in. There is a collection bin in the Gathering Room.

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: 15 Then the LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it. Genesis 2:15 (My Life in Him Devotional Book page 32)
