Attention People With Blood – Could You Give Some?

GivingHeart

Nothing can replace blood…except blood. Emergency rooms across the country are open 24 / 7 and the need for blood in surgery and emergency situations is constant.

If you have given blood in the past, thank you! And, you are invited to come back and share your “gift of life” again.

If you have never given blood before, now is the time. There is a critical shortage of donated blood and the call has been sent out to one and all to do what we can to help.

Oh behalf of doctors, nurses and medical teams across the land, thank you and God bless our generous and loving donors.

Readings for Epiphany IV: The Other Cheek, The Extra Mile, and Loving Our Neighbors As Ourselves

Bible and Candle

The Seventh Sunday after the Epiphany – February 22 / 23
The Collect
O Lord, you have taught us that without love whatever we do is worth nothing: Send your Holy Spirit and pour into our hearts your greatest gift, which is love, the true bond of peace and of all virtue, without which whoever lives is accounted dead before you. Grant this for the sake of your only Son Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
