Love ought to show itself in deeds more than in words.

Support Care Not Killing's campaign for proper funding of palliative care and ask Members of the Scottish Parliament to oppose the legalisation of euthanasia or assisted suicide in Scotland.
​

Each year from September 1 to October 4, the Christian family unites for this worldwide celebration of prayer and action to protect our common home.

​This year, let us pray for the success of COP26 and for our own efforts to care for creation.

Give us, Lord, we pray, respect for the earth, renew within us Lord, a sense of its worth.

Amen

Want to be part of a body in the Parish that works closely with the Parish Priest to support our parish? Then please consider the Parish Pastoral Council (PPC). Some of their recent work includes putting in place measures to allow Mass to resume safely during lockdown. Activities are varied from organising family BBQs, encouraging the youth of the Parish to contribute to Mass and get more involved in the life of the Parish and listening to the voice of Parishioners and directing Parish life to support these wishes.

Nomination Forms can be downloaded here and will also be available in the church Porch. The process of nomination is simple and forms need to be returned by 26 September to Father Mackle. You will also need two sponsors.

Please help support your Parish through involvement in this important body. 

Thank you.

International Day for Remembrance of the Slave Trade and its abolition is observed on 23rd August

Thoughts and prayers with St Nicholas' Primary school community. 

We were sorry to hear of the difficult and challenging time the school had last week due to the covid / self isolation situation.  

We hope that the weeks ahead aren't just as difficult, and that the school community will soon be restored to some normality.    

​Take care. Stay safe and pray safe

It was wonderful seeing such a great turnout at last weekend’s Masses.
