SAINT AMBROSE HIGH SCHOOL

Over the weekend of 19/20 September we will have students and staff from St Ambrose speaking at each Mass.  This is part of the Parish Outreach work from the school and allows us to grow the bonds of community.  We very much look forward to hearing from the young people and their plans for the future.  At each Mass there will be a second collection to support the work of the Chaplaincy Team.

Please keep them and all at our schools in your prayers.

PARISH PILGRIMAGE AND 10KM WALK TO FALKLAND PALACE IN FIFE

We are looking at a pilgrimage to Falkland Palace in late October.

As in previous trips we will have the option of walking or staying on the bus to our destination.

Falkland Palace, in Falkland, Fife, is a royal palace of the Scottish kings. It was one of the favourite places of Mary, Queen of Scots, who took refuge there from political and religious turmoil of her times.

The Chapel Royal in the Palace is dedicated to Thomas the Apostle where we hope to celebrate Holy Mass.
