Weekly Collections Diocesan Donate Facility
During this period of lockdown since the church has been closed there has not been the usual opportunity to make financial contributions to support the upkeep of the parish. Some parishioners have posted contributions through the church house door. This is a reminder that an easy way to support the parish financially is to contribute online. The Diocese has set up a Donate Facility to make this easier. Simply click this link and follow the instructions

Message from Fr. Ivan 18th March 2020
As you may have heard due to the Covid-19 outbreak public Masses in Scotland will be suspended from after Mass tomorrow Thursday 19th. For us that mean I will say a private Mass at 0930 each day in the church. If you have any intentions that you would like me to include please let me know by phone or email and I will include them. Also although generally people will not be able to physically attend I would encourage you to try and attend spiritually at that time and perhaps ask your guardian angel to attend for you.
I will try and keep people aware of what's happening when I can. Let us pray for one another. Fr Ivan
