Service Opportunities

If you are a part of Walnut Street Baptist Church and are a woman, then you are eligible to be part of WOWs.  We are a group of women that are dedicated to Christ and our church, serving Him through many avenues.

 

Some of the WOWS projects include

bullet

BIBLE STUDY PLANNING  – On-going, with studies offered every season. This winter we have hosted groups in Indiana, J-town and on Church campus studying the book of Revelation.

bullet

PRAYER MINISTRY – Making plans for special prayer days, such as for the Task Force work and opening the Chapel for prayer on Mondays.

bullet

SPIRIT RIDERS MINISTRY - Our contribution helps provide the dinners they have once per month.  They meet every Thursday night, but have dinner only once per month.  This wonderful ministry can be supported by volunteers showing up any Thursday night.  You can also contact Linda Ross to help prepare and serve the dinner. 

bullet

2011 MISSION TRIPS – Funds are raised by the fellowship events held 2-3 times each year (Scarf & Jewerly Auction/Brunch and Festival of Tables plus others) . This year we were blessed to be able to contribute $1000.00 to be used as needed for these trips.

bullet

NATIVE AMERICAN MISSIONS  – This ministry has been supported since the inception of WOWS. We regularly send care packages of donated items to missions in Gallup, NM and White River, ND. Jackie Hillman makes annual trips to personally minister and assess ways we can help.

bullet

NEIGHBORHOOD MISSIONS – Support of the “Love You Neighbor” lunch.

bullet

WOMEN ON MISSION AND WOWS – Coordinate outreach on various projects, such as the Day of Prayer on March 4th for South American missions.

bullet

EASTER BASKETS – For neighborhood children in our Sunday School and Easter gift bags delivered to  Homebound Members. Help is needed assembling baskets and/or by donating items or cash funding anytime during the year.  We also appreciate any visitors to help deliver the baskets, as well as a friendly contact to the recipients.  This fun project began in 1999 by Linda Hook's daughter Angela and continues as a passion of Linda's. This project is not merely the delivery of an Easter basket, but an opportunity for visitation and outreach to homebound members and friends.  Contact Linda or Mary Ann Tyler for more details.

bullet

BLESSINGS BLANKETS – Fleece blankets that are made and delivered to seriously ill members (so far we have delivered about 100 blankets.) A similar outreach is the Prayer Shawl Ministry of crocheted and knitted coverlets prepared and delivered by Lela Hendrix and crew. If you know of someone in need of a blessing, please contact Lela, Linda Hook or Mary Ann Tyler.)

bullet

CHURCH CLEANING – A cleaning day to help get areas that may be missed.
