A Mexican Fiesta For First Family Feast
This Sunday Following Morning Worship
We are planning a Super Sunday Lunch for everyone following our Morning Worship service. Our theme will be Mexican with a Taco Bar as the main entree. We encourage anyone with a special recipe or dessert to bring it so we can enjoy your gift. A big thank you to Peggy and Gary Self, Jeff Williams, and MG Black for organizing this gathering. Check out this link for needed food items: https://form.jotform.com/260305161677051
SuperBowl Party
Sunday at 6:30 PM
Each year we enjoy watching the big game with our friends from church in the family life center. Most of us are probably not Patriots or Seahawk fans, but it is still a good time to spend time together. Normally most of our crowd leaves soon after the halftime show. But MG and the Pastor will be there till the end. The food is always delicious and conversations are wonderful. This is an event for the whole family.
Keenagers Off To Blue Ocean Restaurant
Friday, February 13th
Our over 50 crowd will head off to Clinton, SC to enjoy one of the area’s best seafood establishments. It is about an hour drive up I-20 which gives us enough time to connect with other keenagers. We will take the church van along with several other cars. We are grateful to Cat Elks for organizing the gathering. There is a sign up sheet in the foyer so we know how many vehicles we might need.
Children and Teen Bible Quiz
Saturday, February 7th
West Columbia Central Nazarene will host both the children’s and teens’ quiz. This meet is the next to the last one for the season. The children have been studying the book of Genesis while the youth have been focused on 1 and 2 Corinthians. For the teens, this quiz will decide who represents our district in Nashville.
Young Adult Get Together-Game Night
Saturday, February 28
Are you good at Catan? Maybe Scrabble is your game. We would like to invite our young adults who are technically from ages 20-40 years old. This is a great opportunity to get to know some like minded people. Feel free to bring your favorite finger food.

Wednesday Nights are Growing
Wednesday nights are full of excitement at WCFN.
Our children’s bible groups are growing each week.
We couldn’t be happier!
But, we could use a few helpers that love children.
If you would like to be a part of influencing a child’s life, please talk to Regina.
It’s a wonderful experience and, of course, our kids are the best!
Food Pantry Drive
Our monthly food pantry has grown to provide nourishment for
around 30-35 families. While we are grateful for everyone who is
bringing in goods, we realize there might be some who would like
to sponsor a family each month. The estimated cost
of the couple of bags of groceries is $30. We’d love to get 30 donors! Please let
Anne Shaw know if this might be your way of assisting this
important program and pick up a magnet in the foyer.

Letter From Pastor Bill
Hello Friends,
Finally it looks like the weather will cooperate and we will have our normal services. I have missed being with you all. We have a full day with a First Family Feast following Morning Worship. At 4 PM will be our afternoon service which is followed by choir practice. Then at 6:30 we will gather to watch the Super Bowl. I hope to see you. As far as prayer requests, Jim Lowrimore remains in Prisma Richland hospital. Please continue to lift up Cindy Moody, Curtis Martin, Harold Finley, Terry Hook, Hope Addison, Linda Dent, Janice Lewis along with all of our shut-ins. Thank you for your love and support.
God Bless,
Pastor Bill
