Thank you - Blood Drive - January 10

We thank all of you Brother Knights, your families, our fellow Seton Lake Ridge Parishioners, and those from area churches and in Lake Ridge area who donated blood this past Saturday, January 10th at the KofC 8183 INOVA  Blood Donor Services Blood Drive held over at Saint Matthew's Lutheran Church.  Despite the 15 no-shows and the 10 cancelations (we understand, this is flu season) and thanks to the 12 walk-ins, a quantity of 66 units of blood were collected.

The next blood drive will take place on Saturday, March 14 in upper Seton Hall, from 7:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. with 44 of the 105 time slots still available. The link to the sign-up through INOVA, is here: https://www.inovabloodsaves.org/donor/schedules/drive_schedule/33312

Special thanks to PGK Kevin Tamai, who organizes these Blood Drives, not only here at Seton Lake Ridge, but coordinates with the other two participating churches, Saint Matthew's and the Church of Jesus Christ of LatterDay Saints, both in Lake Ridge. In addition, we thank Brother Clyde Watts, who is there each and every time to assist in the set-ups and tear downs.
