This Week’s Opportunities


NEXT BLOOD DRIVE: JULY 27th
    The next Red Cross Blood Drive will be held on Tuesday July 27th from 2:30 until 7:30 in the Fellowship Hall.  Summer is a critical time when blood supplies are very low.  Our goal is to collect 55 units.  Please consider giving "The Gift of Life".  This is a great opportunity to IMPACT LIVES. Sign up before or after the Sunday church services in the Narthex or contact David Saunders or Jan Dowdy.

Important Kit Assembly Information

  • All items included in kits must be NEW items. 
  • All emergency kits are carefully planned to make them usable in the greatest number of situations. Since strict rules often govern product entry into international countries, it is important that kits contain only the requested items-nothing more.
  • Do NOT include any personal notes, money or additional materials in the kits. These things must be painstakingly removed and will delay the shipment.
