Recently, some of our members have requested information on what they need to do to get the COVID vaccine. There is no requirement to take the Covid-19 vaccination. You and your personal physician should decide if it is best for you. The vaccination hotline can be reached at 866-442-5301. (follow the prompts) They can help you understand the process for receiving the vaccine if that is what you choose to do.
January’s items for the Golden Deeds Ministry are dish soap/laundry detergent. These items will be collected with each new resident. There is a collection bin in the Gathering Room.
2020 has been a challenging year! Have you struggled with fear, or know someone who has? What is the biblical basis of integrating fear into our faith? On Tuesdays at 7pm, Steve Moore will be hosting a Zoom class on “Faith, Fear, and Risk.” This will be a participatory study with Bible reading assignments. If interested, e-mail skmoore63@comcast.net and put “I’m in” in the subject line; you will receive a link to the study in the next day or so.
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: 19 “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; 20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. Matthew 6:19-21 (My Life in Him Devotional Book page 4)
