“The need for blood in Alabama and the nation is constant, and especially so in the wakes of the hurricanes and this increased travel season,” blood drive coordinator John Horch said. “Your participation is greatly appreciated by the Red Cross and St. John’s Knights of Columbus but, most of all, by those who need blood because of accident or illness.”

“Please take a few minutes out of your busy schedule and give the gift of life,” Horch said.

For more information, call the church office at 256-722-0130 or Horch at 772-3280.
