​World day of Prayer for Vocations.

SVDP is running two events which may be of interest to you.
Firstly, the annual ‘Vincentian talk‘ will be given on Monday 25th April in Blessed John Duns Scotus at 7.30pm - admission is free and refreshments will be served afterwards.
Secondly the annual charity concert takes place in Woodlands Halls on Friday 27th May. Proceeds from the concert will go to support the work of the Ozanam Centre in Glasgow.
Details of both these events are on the the noticeboard in the porch. On behalf of the SVDP conference here in St Andrew’s thank you for your support during the last year. Your contributions have allowed us to provide significant assistance to individuals and groups within our own parish. In addition we have been able to support other parishes in our cluster and beyond.
