Peter’s Pence - 26th/27 June
This is the practice of the laity to provide financial support to the Holy See to allow the Holy Father the means to respond to those suffering as a result of war, oppression, natural disaster, and disease.  Catholics around the world contribute roughly £70M annually through this collection.  The US is the biggest contributor at 30%, followed by Italy, Germany, Spain, France, Ireland, Brazil and South Korea.  You can donate easily to this collection by visiting our Diocesan website www.rcdop.org.uk and clicking on the ‘Online Parish Offertory’.  This allows you to donate to any of the causes or parishes of your choice.  Many thanks

Think Vocation
“Even the wind and the sea obey him.” Jesus brings calm when storms threated to overwhelm us. Could you bring his calming, restoring presence to others and inspire faith in times of anxiety? Speak to Fr. John Morrison, our Vocations Director, email vocations@rcdop.org.uk or phone 0141 889 5056.  
 
Bulletins
We will resume the Bulletins next weekend, which will be handed out to you as you leave the Church.
 
Reception of Holy Communion
As from this Wednesday the 23rd of June, this will return to normal time after the Priest’s Communion (St John’s only). In order to avoid climbing/squeezing by others in the pew, could all leave their seats regardless of receiving Communion or not.
