Here at Walnut Street, we believe in an Acts 1:8 philoophy of missions. We are fulfilling the call to reach the lost in our Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and the uttermost. Unlike many other churches, we have the wonderful opportunity to serve our community in the downtown-urban setting. We also offer mission trips throughout the year to different states and around the world. Look at each option to the left and pray for where God may be asking you to GO!

CSM Christian Social Ministries
The Christian Social Ministries exists to link congregational resources with people in the church and community who have financial, physical, educational, spiritual, and emotional needs. On a daily basis we collect and distribute basic items such as clothing, food, household items, personal hygiene items and furniture. We also provide financial assistance for rent, utilities, and prescription medication to families and individuals with little or no financial resources. In addition to these daily activities, a number of special programs throughout the year seek to address both the causes and effects of poverty in our community.

If you are interested in serving with the Walnut Street Community Ministries email Marge Brown or call (502)589-3454.
