Thank you, Blood Drive, Nov 15 
The KofC Blood Drive, in conjunction with Inova Blood Services, took place on Saturday, November 15 in upper Seton Hall.  We thank PGK Kevin Tamai for leading this Event and Clyde Watts for assisting.   In all, there 91 units of blood collected at this drive, which includes whole blood, platelet, plasma and double reds,  This is a community event in which Kevin coordinates with the three other churches, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Saint Matthew's Lutheran Church and Old Bridge Methodist Church.  The next drive is scheduled for January 10, 2026, at Saint Matthew's located at 12351 All Saints Place in Woodbridge.   For any questions, please reach out to Kevin at 703-622-6861 or at tamaikevin@gmail.com.
 
Thank you, Hoagies Sales, Nov 8-9 
The Hoagie Sale, conducted this past weekend, was a success.  All 500 hoagies made, were sold, the last going following the 10:45 Mass.  We are sorry we did not have any left to sell after the 12:30 Mass. This could not have happened without the help from the following Brothers (and I am sorry, if I left you out): DGK Steve Amato, Bob Anastasio, Jason Boffetti, Mark Brown, Greg Byrum, PGK Jeff Carrera, PGK George Clark, Brad Engborg, Dwayne Griese, Les Krough, John Loftus, Andrew McGrail, Daniel McGrail, Al Nessel, Michael Rotchford, PGK Richard Roy, Tom Shank, Chuck Short, Scott Smid, Sean Ward, Clyde Watts, Chriss Yoder and Don Zajackowski.  A special thanks to Tom Shank, for driving up to the District to pick-up up the meats, and to PGK George Clark, who led this Event.  
Preliminary results show a profit of $1,215, based on sales of $3,542 and expenses (meats and cheese, rolls and lettuce) of $2,327.  Thank you all!
