If you wish to sign up for Gift Aid. It is a great way to help the parish financially, costing you absolutely nothing. If you wish to sign up contact myself or Doreen Lee and we will give you the form and hand it back as you can and we can get it organised. As I said it costs you nothing, but helps the parish so much.

Blessed Carlo Acutis & Pier Giorgio Frassati Will be canonised on Sunday by Pope Leo XVI. There will be an information sheet about the two new Saints in the porch at the end of all the Masses on Sunday. I will be blessing the icon and the new statue of Carlo Acutis this Sunday at the 11am Mass Prayer to Saint Carlo Acutis O God, our Father Thank you for giving us Carlo, model of life for young people, and a message of love for all. You gave him Mary, a beloved Mother, and with the Rosary you made him sing the praises of her tenderness. Accept his prayer for us. Attend especially to the poor, whom he loved and helped. Through his intercession, may I receive the grace I need ..... And fulfil our joy, by placing Carlo among the Saints of your Holy Church, that his smile may shine again for us for the glory of your name Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be. Prayer for Saint Pier Giorgio Frassati Heavenly Father, Give me the courage to strive for the highest goals, to flee every temptation to be mediocre. Enable me to aspire to greatness, as Pier Giorgio did, and to open my heart with joy to Your call to holiness. Free me from the fear of failure. I want to be, Lord, firmly and forever united to You. Grant me the graces I ask You through Pier Giorgio's intercession, by the merits of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
At the 11am Mass we have lost three Eucharistic Ministers for the foreseeable future. Marie because of illness please keep her in our prayers. Michelle & Graham because they have moved to Ayrshire. All of them hopefully will resume their duties in the future. I asked some people to become new Eucharistic Ministers last weekend and I will continue this weekend. I will be having a meeting with those I have asked this Wednesday 10th at 7pm in the Side Chapel. It means for the moment that the remaining Eucharistic Ministers at the 11am will be on more often. I thank you for your cooperation in advance. I really appreciate it.
