(PRESS RELEASE) – On a sunshine Sunday morning a pastor from the Universal Church in Castries decided not preach about love but show to his members what it is.
After having a service the church service, the pastor took them to donate blood. The Bank Blood bus from Victoria Hospital was parked on the outside of the church just waiting for the service to dismiss.
The members accepted the challenge and decided to follow the instructions and directions of the pastor.
“We know the need of blood at the hospital, we have heard so much about cars involved in accidents and people getting shot and end up losing blood.
Because of all that we decided to teach our members on how to practice love. No matter whom the person is, we are not here to judge but to love them and God will do the work in their heart.” – Said Pastor Joseph from the Universal Church in Castries
The pastor said that this kind of work will be done by the church together with the Victoria Hospital as much they are in need of the help.
“The Victoria Hospital can count on us for help. We are available at any time the hospital is need of assistance” – the pastor added

Good job
Good work Pastor Joseph and your flock, continue to live by the word of God. You are showing the world the love of Jesus by piercing the darkness with God's glorious light. To God be the Glory!!
Let us rise up saints!!! St.Lucia needs salvation. Jesus hear our cry. Save us Lord...
Hebrews 10:24-25
And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
Matthew 5:16
In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
James 2:14-17
What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that? So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
Well said anonymous
Let the good news be known, so that others may follow. I say "Share the love".
I hope the blood was good
Nice ! Do the same next Sunday gather thy flock and march thru town and protest the high crime rate.
THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST GESTURES DONE BY THE CHURCH IN ST LUCIA IN A LONG TIME
Count me out because I afraid of hypodermic or syringe needles. Wish they could use special 'lab mosquitos' to transfer blood from humans to the blood bank.
Wow, great news! Thank you and your congregation.
Very good gesture I applaud the pastor and his congregation. Other should follow.
My friend, others have gone before . . Just that they don't use it as a publicity stunt!
Wonderful ..
Nothing but a publicity stunt. Religion is the biggest business now so why not advertise for more market share. The bible itself said that they would come as sheep, as prophets and loved by everybody. If you want to do something good then its good to also keep it quiet.
if we keep it quite u will say: RELIGION DON`T DO NOTHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!!!
NOT TRUE?
I think this is a great and positive story. You people love negativity too much. Be thankfu that this is not another killing. Thank you SNO and pastor. Positivity breeds positivity.
But this is the new covenant I will make with the people of Israel on that day, says the LORD: I will put my laws in their minds, and I will write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
Hebrews 8: 10
Wonderful! Now, organise a fitness programme and take everybody.
Lol ?
Awesome...our God is awesome.Happy people St.Lucia...Love you'll.
