Life Line Screening: The Power of Prevention

Life Line Screening goes beyond regular checkups to look inside your arteries for signs of plaque or buildup. 

Join us Friday, April 26, 2024 at Byron Center United Methodist Church for your screening!

All four screenings are completed for $149.

Carotid Artery Disease: An ultrasound is performed to screen to carotid artheries for buildup of fatty plaque. This buildup, call atherosclerosis, is one of the leading causes of stroke.

Peripheral Arterial Disease: An ABI test is performed using blood pressure cuffs on the arms and legs. Peripheral Arterial Disease increases the risk of coronary artery disease, heart attack, or stroke.

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm: An ultrasound is performed to screen the abdominal aorta for the presence of an enlargement or aneurysm. Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm can lead to a ruptured aortic artery, which is life-threatening.

Atrial Fibrillation: A 6-lead EKG is performed by placing sensors on the arms and legs to screen for Atrial Fibrillation. AFib can lead to blood clots, stroke, heart failure, and other heart-related complications.

School Supply Drive

Each year, our church puts together a school supply drive to help students in need. Our drive last year was extremely successful, and we were able to support hundreds of children. Despite the school year being in session, we are always collecting supplies for next year's drive. Our Christmas Tree Sales that BCUMC does at the end of the year jumpstarts our funding for the back to school drive.
