Hi!

As you may know, we are sending three build teams to Mexico this summer as part of the GO Campaign! We are very excited about this opportunity and hope that you can join us as we go down.

In order to make the trip more affordable, we have reduced the price from the normal $450 to $200. We are going to cover the extra cost of the trip through an exciting new ministry that we were recently put in contact with called Blood for Missions. Blood for Missions is a non-profit organization that uses blood drives to raise money for mission trips and ministry groups such as ourselves. For each pint of blood given, money will be sent directly to Baja Christian Ministries to help raise $10,000 for building materials.

Dates and times::

There are two blood drives coming up this month.

Sunday, June 14: 10am – 5pm
Sunday, June 28: 2:30pm – 9:30pm

How you can help::

- Give Blood:: make an appointment on either the 14th or the 28th and help support our ministry through this sacrifice of your time and body.
- Encourage Friends to Give Blood:: anyone can participate in this event! Ask your friends, family, and co-workers to give a little bit of their time and blood to support our ministry.
- Volunteer:: We need volunteers to help make this happen. There are two ways in which you can volunteer.
- Work the patio:: We are going to have a table on the patio to promote the blood drives and help people make appointments. We need at least two volunteers at each service (including Shark Club!) on the following weekends:

June 6-7
June 13-14
June 20-21
June 27-28

- Work the Blood Drive:: We need people at the blood drive itself to help set up, tear down and sign people in for their appointments. We need volunteers throughout the day on these dates:June 14, from 8am-7pm
June 28, from 12:30-11pm

- Wear a sombrero! We will have sombreros available at the patio. Put it on while you’re at church, tell people to go sign up to give blood, and then return the sombrero after the service.
