Vascular screenings are an important part of your annual health regimen, combined with regular physician check-ups. Life Line Screening will test for: § Stroke (carotid arteries) $45 § AFIB test (irregular heartbeat) $45 § Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) $45 § Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) $45 § Osteoporosis (bone density) $35
Stroke, Vascular Disease, Heart Rhythm, and Osteoporosis Package (all 5 screenings above) $149
Problems can be detected early and taken care of before they become
life threatening!
Pre-registration is required. Call 1-800-779-6353 (Priority code

BOX TOPS FOR EDUCATION In order to help support our local school district, Bellbrook-Sugarcreek Schools, we have a collection box in the foyer for people to donate the Box Top coupons that are found on commonly purchased foods. They are everywhere - next time you buy a box, look for the little coupon on it! Just cut it out, keep them together, and at your convenience, bring them in to the church and put them in the box. When they are redeemed by the school, they receive cold, hard cash for each one!! There are also coupons available on their website for products that carry the Box Top coupon, so you get to save some money too!
