Collection Envelopes Could we kindly ask you to use the Envelopes for the 22/23 Tax Year and not the previous years as your envelope number will not correspond to this year. Secondly, please do not score out numbers, dates or whatever is printed on the envelopes, it causes numerous problems. Could you also please note that the legacy collection ceased over a year ago. If you need up to date envelopes for this Tax Year 22/23, please ask. Anniversaries/Deaths Could you please print in capitals the names of the deceased as this helps enormously in knowing who the Mass intention is for. St Thomas' Donations are being sought for the Barrhead Food Bank. The priority at the moment is Porridge Oats, Tea/Coffee and long-life Milk. Donations will be uplifted after the 10am Mass on Sundays. The collection bucket is in the porch.
