The Red Cross medical staff continues its life-saving work at Messiah with their team coming here to our Family Life Center on the first Tuesday of every other month, usually 12:30 to 6:00 p.m.
The Red Cross is particularly in need of blood types O negative, O positive, A negative, and B negative, but all blood types are needed. Walk-ins are always welcome. All donors are encouraged to call 1-800-GIVE LIFE (1-800-448-3543) to schedule a donating time for any Red Cross blood drive at Messiah.
We are thankful for Messiah member support and for the support of people in the surrounding community who regularly donate their life-saving blood. These gifts have helped save the lives of some of our own members.
Upcoming blood drive dates are:
May 6, 2008
July 8, 2008
September 9, 2008
November 4, 2008
January 6, 2009
March 10, 2009
If you are unable to donate blood or are interested in helping more volunteers are always needed. Coordinators are needed to help recruite and schedule volunteers. Volunteers greet donors and serve them beverages and snacks after their donation. For more information contact Onie Ziehl or the church office at 952-431-5959.
