Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion who are on the Vigil / Sunday rota - a date for your diary. Please note there will be a meeting in the church on Sunday, 6th September at 1pm.

Coordinator required - If anyone would be interested in taking on the role of co-ordinator of Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion, for a fixed term of 2 years from September, could they please say to Frank Bonnar or Fr Mackle. It involves drawing up the rota every quarter and sending it out to all by email, and also attending the liturgy group meetings (four times a year).

Like to Train and become a Parish Catechist? If you would like to apply for this two-year part-time course, sponsored by the parish, and train to become a parish catechist, speak to Fr. Mackle.  This course is also suitable for those who wish to study for their own purposes.  For further information, contact the RE Dept on 226 5898 /[email protected]

Interested in becoming a Catholic? – Not baptised? Baptised in another faith? The RCIA Programme (Rite of Christian Initiation for Adult) will begin in the autumn.  RCIA is the process by which adults are received into the Catholic Church.  The programme of catechesis and instruction prepares adults for the sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist, usually celebrated at the Easter Vigil.  Please speak to Fr. Mackle or Monsignor Ryan if you have any questions about receiving the Sacraments as an adult, or if you would like to know more about RCIA and the Catholic faith.

The Knights of St Columba are unique in the Catholic Church. The role of the Knights is to support our churches and our communities, to help those less fortunate than ourselves and have a commitment to help develop our young people in their journey of Faith. We live in the values of Charity, Unity and Fraternity. What makes us different from other service organisations is the spiritual element, what the Second Vatican Council referred to as the universal call to holiness. That is the spirit of the Order, being a lay apostolate. If you wish to join us on our journey, now is the time to take the Opportunity to Serve. For more information contact Brian Henry (Provincial Grand Knight), E-mail: [email protected] or Tony McCartney (Provincial Membership Officer), E-mail: [email protected] or phone our Head Office on 0141 883 5700

Legion of Mary – 7.30 p.m. in the Hut every Tuesday.  All most welcome.

Fresh Start is a local ecumenical charity supporting Women’s Aid in association with Scottish Churches Housing. We provide new, small household goods for women setting up a new home after a period in a refuge. The reason for providing new goods is to boost the women’s’ self-esteem which is often low after domestic abuse. The organisation needs someone to take on the role of Treasurer; this will not be a big job, possibly a few hours a month at most. The person will have to set up a bank account, bank cheques from donors and give out money to Fresh Start members when we need to buy more stock for the stores. The person will not necessarily need to come to meetings as most of the business can be done by email or in person. If anyone wishes to know any more information or to volunteer they can contact Sue Cobb on 0141 772 9429.
