Members from different houses of worship were invited earlier this month to gather at Guru Nanak Mission Gurudwara, a worship space for Sikhs in Oakland in Bergen County.
But, they weren’t there for a worship service.
Instead, they gathered on a Friday night to participate in a training session and receive a key item — a bleeding control kit.
The state Office of Homeland Security and Preparedness began distributing bleeding control kits to thousands of houses of worship in New Jersey this month.
