Serving Chesterton…

The churches of Chesterton, Porter, Burns Harbor, and other parts of the greater Duneland area made a major impact at ShareFest last year.  And now we’re gearing up to make an even bigger impact in 2009!

Saturday, Oct. 10, 2009
9:00 am – 3:00 pm – Volunteers working at project sites or blood drive

Pastor Allen Wright, from New Life Wesleyan Church, has agreed to serve again as Chesterton’s City Director. For more information about what’s going on with ShareFest this year, you can contact him using this website’s contact form, or you can call him at (219) 926-8119.

Blood Drive

The First United Methodist Church (434 South 2nd Street) is the designated location for the ShareFest blood drive in Chesterton.  This site will operate from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm on Oct. 10.  You can drop in any time during those hours, but if you want to reduce your wait time you can pre-register at www.givelife.org. Use the sponsor code “SF” to find the ShareFest blood drives, then then choose your location.  Or call 1-800-448-3543 to pre-register or get more information.
