Ukraine Donations Appeal
Here in St John's/St Thomas we are asking that you assist those in Ukraine and fleeing with specific donations of Baby Formula, Nappies, Power Banks (battery chargers), torches, warm blankets/bedding, in good condition. This is from 6th March - 13th March (inclusive). You can leave the donations at Our Lady’s Statue in St John's and St Thomas' Porch.

4O Days for Life
This Lent the 40 Days for Life prayer group in Scotland will hold its annual vigil outside the maternity unit at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Glasgow. From Ash Wednesday 2nd March until Palm Sunday 10th April, from 8am until 8pm the site will be manned daily. As you can imagine this is a big undertaking, but we have managed to do it for the past five years. Today I ask you to join the Pro -Life cause by signing up for a slot during the 40 days – come hail, rain or shine. Usually, people give an hour of their time when we say the Joyful, Sorrowful and Glorious Mysteries.  Contact Matt Lynch on 0797 1234313.
