Due to blood supply shortages the hours of the drive have been extended to accommodate more donors. Hosting monthly Red Cross Blood Drives began in July 2020 as a response to COVID needs in our community. To date, Good Shepherd has hosted 54 drives, totaling 1,049 units collected. With each unit potentially saving three lives, we have impacted over 3,000 people; 94 donations came from first time donors. We collected 24 units on April 1st. Now is the time to be a donor, just roll up your sleeve and save lives and you get a pair of cool sunglasses! In order to fill our schedule, we need your help to spread the word to your neighbors, family, and friends. All are welcome to join us in this life saving effort. To schedule an appointment, go to: RedCrossBlood.org, or call 1/800/733.2767. Invite a friend to schedule an appointment too! Donating blood is always more fun with a friend. 

Would you like to serve communion four times a year? Or be a substitute? Please email Sue Nelson at dr.sue1@verizon.net if you would like to serve in either capacity.

A couple of weeks ago, Pastor DJ introduced us to La Casa, a church plant in Glendora with a heart for community and the hope of the gospel. If you're curious to learn more about their mission -- or feel called to support this growing ministry -- click the link: https://www.glenkirkchurch.org/lacasa/

If you have financial needs, please email Pastor Bryan at bryan@gspc.org to make an appointment to confidentially discuss receiving a gift from the Deacons' Benevolence Fund.

If you are downsizing, had an estate sale, or are moving you can donate items such as clean useable blankets or canned foods to Local Missions at their table on the Plaza.
