Knights of Columbus: Thank You St. Francis of Assisi
On behalf of our Knights of Columbus St. Joseph Council 4810, I would like to extend a huge thank you to St. Francis Parish for their help in making our August 4th blood drive a huge success again this year!
The turnout was so strong that we beat our goal by 40% and even beat last year’s turnout, which was unthinkable to most of us!
Our thanks go out to Father Peter, the rectory staff, the amazing bulletin staff and, most of all, the many parishioners who were donors again this year.
We are so grateful to all the lifesaving heroes who participated in so many ways!
Thank you all and Vivat Jesus!
