4/30 AED training for ushers and other members of the congregation. What does AED stand for? Automated external defibrillator. The church has an AED apparatus in the Narthex. We want to train as many people as possible how to use it in case of an emergency.
The training will be a short video of how to use it and Dr. Mindy Ford will be here to answer any questions we might have during the training.
