Walnut Grove Church

The community around Walnut Grove Church

Among the people scattered across those miles, more than 4 in 10 adults live with obesity, and about a third of adults say they are socially isolated, and nearly a quarter describe their own health as fair or poor. A scattered parish is still a parish.

Pray for the families driving a long way to everything — to work, to a hospital, to this door on a Sunday morning.
