Pumpkin Patch

The Pumpkins Are Coming!

We are beyond excited to bring the Pumpkin Patch to Jennings. Please join us for Family Day on Saturday, October 30, 2021, from 10am til dusk. Along with the pumpkins, there will be food, games, story telling, hay rides, fun jumps and more!

Our pumpkins range in price from just under $1 to around $55 for the largest you will see in the patch. Our patch team will be happy to help you find the pumpkin or pumpkins that will be just right for you and your family. For your convenience, we accept cash, check and credit card. Donations will be accepted also.

Life Share Blood Drive

>>PRE-REGISTER HERE to avoid wait time<<

One in three people will need blood at some time in their life. When someone in the communities we serve needs blood, it is our responsibility to have it safe and readily available. The only way we can do that is through your donations.

With no substitute for human blood, volunteer blood donations save lives right here in our community every day. If you can give blood, please do. If you can’t, please encourage and support others who can and help spread the word. Donating blood only takes a short amount of time a few times a year, or when you are eligible.

The blood donation process generally follows these steps:

  • Before giving blood, make sure that you meet the requirements, get a good night’s sleep, eat regular meals and drink plenty of fluids.
  • After you present a photo ID and read the information sheet you will undergo a mini-exam (temperature, blood pressure, heart rate, and iron level) and then provide confidential answers to health history questions.
  • The donation takes place in a comfortable chair. Most donors feel a slight prick when the needle is inserted and nothing after that.
  • After the donation, you should sit down and have a snack and beverage. If you experience any light-headedness let your donor technician know and lie down until you feel better. Do not use tobacco products for the next 30 minutes. Leave the arm bandage on and do not engage in strenuous activity or lift heavy objects for the next two to four hours. For the next 24 – 48 hours be sure to increase fluid intake.

SYATP

See You at the Pole™, the global day of student prayer, began in 1990 as a grass roots movement with ten students praying at their school. Twenty years later, millions pray on their campuses on the fourth Wednesday in September.

See You at the Pole™ is simply a prayer rally where students meet at the school flagpole before school to lift up their friends, families, teachers, school, and nation to God. See You at the Pole™ is a student-initiated, student-organized, and student-led event.

Did you know that sushi is swimming with health benefits? It’s a good source of heart healthy omega-3 fatty acids thanks to the fish it’s made with. Sushi is also low in calories – there’s no added fat. The most common type is nigiri sushi – fingers of sticky rice topped with a small filet of fish or seafood.
