HELP A NEIGHBOUR TO SUNDAY MASS
The Mass for the sick was greatly enjoyed by those who normally can’t get to Holy Mass on a Sunday. They really enjoyed coming to Mass and being part of the worshipping community again.
It may be worth considering bringing someone you know to Mass once a month, or even only a few times a year. Please think about bringing someone to church and contact the office.
SOCIETY OF SAINT VINCENT DE PAUL
Donations to the society can be made when coming to church via their collection boxes. They are working hard in our community and helping those in need. Your donations are greatly appreciated.
If you or someone you know needs assistance, please contact the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul on 07504 021995, email stambrosesvdp25@gmail.com, or contact the parish office on 0141 771 1058.
FOODBANK
Your donations of the following items will be gratefully received: tinned meats, jars of pasta sauce, tea bags (40), sugar, tinned vegetables, tinned fruit and toiletries.
