Blood donation, Donors

Members of the Circle of Honorary Blood Donors of the Polish Red Cross at the Town Hall in Karczew participated on May 25 in the 26th National Pilgrimage of Blood Donors to Jasna Góra in Częstochowa. The motto of this year's pilgrimage was - "Honorary Blood Donors participate in the community of the Church."

At 11:00 AM, the pilgrimage began with the Eucharist at the Jasna Góra summit, celebrated by the National Chaplain of Blood Donors, Fr. Colonel Zenon Surma. In his homily, he reminded that blood donation is one of the forms of showing mercy to our neighbors and a beautiful realization of Christ's commandment of love.


It is worth emphasizing that Fr. Colonel Zenon Surma is himself an Honorary Blood Donor who has already donated over 65 liters of this priceless medicine. He has been serving as the National Chaplain of HDK since 1997.


Blood is still lacking, despite many appeals and actions, especially blood from RH-. It is worth remembering that in one year, about 1.7 million blood transfusions are performed in Poland, which allows saving the health and life of another person.


This year, the HDK PCK Club from Karczew was additionally honored during the pilgrimage. A participant from Karczew was asked to read one of the prayers during the General Prayer at the Eucharist, and during the Stations of the Cross, members of our club read reflections at three stations.
