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. Monthly Divine Mercy Devotions and Holy Mass This will take place on Wednesday 30th June at 7pm in St Mary’s Church, 163 George Street, Paisley, PA1 2UN and will be celebrated by Fr Joe Burke. The Divine Mercy devotions will begin with Holy Mass followed by Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament and the Divine Mercy Chaplet. No booking necessary. Just give your details at the door for track and trace. All are welcome. New Dawn in Scotland 12th Annual Conference ‘I have called you by your name you are mine’ Isaiah 43:1-2. This year’s conference will be free to view on YouTube and Facebook and shown over the weekend of the 9th – 11th July. This year we have some new and some familiar speakers who promise to uplift us in these unusual times. We also have a youth and children’s programme to encourage our young ones. Ordination of Rev Joseph Mc Gill: St Mirin’s Cathedral 6th July We pray for Deacon Joe McGill, soon to be ordained a Priest in our Diocese. We pray that Joe and all those preparing for ministerial priesthood may be ever conformed to Jesus, the High Priest. May they preach the Gospel with pure heart and clear conscience. May the Lord let them be shepherds according to His heart, single minded in service to God and the Church. Reception of Holy Communion As from last Wednesday the 23rd of June, the reception of Holy Communion returned to the normal time after the Priest’s Communion (St Johns only). In order to avoid climbing/squeezing by others in the pew, could all leave their seats regardless of receiving Communion or not.
