On Sunday 27th October 2018, the seminarians and their superiors donated blood as a gesture to mark the activities linked with Missions Week and invited friends to join them. They met at 11.00am at the Blood Donation Unit in Xewkija. Since the number of regular donors in Gozo is gradually decreasing, the seminarian community deemed it fit to urge their friends to donate blood. Mr Alvin Scicluna from CVC media joined them in this activity to take a short film and to register comments from the seminarians and from Rector Fr Richard N Farrugia. The short clip and the comments will feature in the news bullettin in the coming days. Donating blood is a noble gesture which may save the life of those who need blood transfusion. All it needs is some encouragement and sacrifice. Such an act leads to the donation of the most precious present to others – life. So, we encourage all to follow our example, overcome fear and donate blood!
