Building Freedom for the Homebound
In the first quarter of the 20th century, Nebraska Lutherans in Axtell and Sterling built Bethphage and Martin Luther Homes from the ground up so that people with disabilities would have opportunities to realize their potential. In 2003, these organizations consolidated, forming Mosaic, to continue serving a common mission in the lives of people with disabilities across the United States and throughout the world.
In the Christ Lutheran vision statement we are, “A community of faith, reaching out to change lives.” There is no better way to make this happen tangibly than the giving of our very own blood. The staff at Carter Bloodcare gives us this opportunity a total of 4 times a year when their bloodmobile visits our church. Our responses to their blood drives have always been good.
