The Risen Christ Catholic Church, Air Itam, successfully organised a blood donation drive on Malaysia Day at the Fr Peter Shyu Hall, in collaboration with the Penang Hospital Blood Bank. The event, held from 9.00am to 3.00pm., was spearheaded by the 2023-2024 RCIA baptised neophytes as part of their Mystagogy stage, marking a significant act of giving back to the community.
Nearly 80 donors participated, contributing to the Penang Hospital Blood Bank’s critical supply. This initiative not only reflected the Church’s commitment to social outreach but also served as a meaningful way to celebrate Malaysia Day, highlighting unity and care for the well-being of fellow Malaysians.
The RCIA neophytes, having recently completed their faith journey, embraced this opportunity to live out their faith in action. The church, in partnership with the Penang Hospital Blood Bank, expressed heartfelt thanks to all donors and volunteers who helped ensure the success of the event.
