Blood Drive

This past Saturday we hosted a regional Red Cross blood drive at our church. We had over 40 people come through and 31 pints of blood were collected. Overall the event was a great success. This is a very simple yet effective way to accomplish your goal as a community pastor in your church in two ways; 1) it creates another opportunity for church members to connect to the physical need of people's lives in their communities and 2) creates a great opportunity to bring brand new people to connect in a real and meaningful way to your church's ministries.

With all Red Cross sponsored blood drives, a post card is sent out to all blood donors in the immediate region asking them to come out and donate blood at your event. We chose to capitalize on this opportunity and we served free food, beverages and offered tours of our new church facilities to all who were interested.
