Totally forgot to mention this a few days ago, but starting today... is National Donor Sabbath. If you don't know much about being a donor (other than the obvious), then you can go here to read about it.
I know a lot of people who aren't organ donors, but I highly encourage you to read more about it, and find out what it's really about. And... just to point out -- it's not always that someone has to die to pass an organ.
Statistics:
More than 28,000 organ transplants were performed in 2007 thanks to the gifts of more than 14,000 donors, yet more than 99,000 people were on the organ transplant waiting list in June 2008.
If your church is not getting involved... let your pastor/administrator know today!
