A special marrow donor registration and blood drive will be held on Saturday, May 10, 2008 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Ebenezer Lutheran Church, 1127 S. 35th Street in Milwaukee. Leadership from The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod will join with leaders from Milwaukee’s Catholic Archdiocese to hold a special blessing ceremony upon those who attend the drive.

 The S.O.S. Center, located in Milwaukee's near west side, is sending out an S.O.S. of its own. So many individuals and families are coming to them for help—now they need your help! There are plenty of opportunities to put talents and treasures to use at this center: English as a second language (ESL) leaders, adult basic education classes, after school program helpers, Bible study, and general education development (GED) preparation leaders are all urgently needed. Please spread the word to your congregation and friends know that they can call Armita Harmon at (414) 449-9964, or try (414) 975-7373, if they can help in any way.
 Lutheran Social Services, an affiliate of Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service (LIRS), is collecting furniture and other donations to set up over 30 apartments for refugee families from Burma arriving by the end of this summer. These families arrive with very few possessions, so donations will contribute significantly to their new lives in the United States. There is a need for twin/full size bed sets, dining tables with chairs, dressers, couches, coffee tables, lamps, vacuum cleaners and rice cookers.
