From the American Red Cross, "Power Red (double red cell) donations require donors to meet specific height, weight, and hemoglobin criteria higher than whole blood donations to ensure safety, primarily targeting donors with O-negative, O-positive, A-negative, or B-negative blood types. Males must be at least 5’1” and >130 lbs, while females must be at least 5’5” and >150 lbs, with a minimum 13.3 g/dL hemoglobin."

We offer a warm welcome and delicious homemade refreshments.

Crisis Meals

Please contact Pastor Heidi or Sue Anderson if you are in need of meal assistance during a difficult time.

181 FLOCKS AND COUNTING!

Check out the chicken poster in the Narthex, we're adding a pompon for each flock we will purchase with your amazing donations! THANKS to everyone who has donated already. Your sacrifice will be a blessing! Families who get chicks from ELCA Good Gifts raise the chicks and share their eggs and new chicks with neighbors. They have protein-rich food for themselves and can earn money by selling eggs and chicks. Envelopes are in the pews. Make checks to St. Luke (memo CHICKS.) There is a chicken button on our online giving platform (Vanco.)

RaiseRight Gift Cards

How it works... merchants give St. Luke a small percent of each card you purchase. For example, you purchase a $100 Stop & Shop gift card, then St. Luke gets $4 you get $100 in groceries. Do this 4 weeks a month and you give St. Luke $16 at no cost to you!These dollars support the church's good samaritan funds which Pastor Heidi can use to support anyone during tight times. It's convenient for you and supports our outreach ministries! It’s a win-win! There are 100's of participating merchants like ShopRite, Dunkin Donuts, Home Depot, Walmart, TJMaxx, Amazon, and Subway just to name a few. To get cards deliverd to St. Luke Order on line at:

 https://www.raiseright.com 

OR  Raise Right cards are available for purchase by check on the First and Third Sundays each month after Worship.
