Postponement of Diocesan Lourdes and Youth to Lourdes Pilgrimages to 2022<\/strong><\/p>\n

Unfortunately, due to present circumstances and the uncertainty facing us all over the next few months, it is with deep regret that we must inform you that the Diocesan Pilgrimage to Lourdes and Youth to Lourdes has now been postponed to June-July 2022. We are fully aware that the shrine of Lourdes means so much to so many in our Diocese and understand and how disappointing this news will be. However, we know that we will all work together and look forward to being welcomed back in 2022. If you already have a place on the Pilgrimage carried over from this year on Joe Walsh tours, their representatives will be contacting you in writing in the New Year to confirm our decision to reschedule and to explain how your booking can be carried forward.<\/p>\n

Year of St Joseph: <\/strong>Pope Francis on the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception (8th<\/sup> December), with great joy proclaimed the Year of St Joseph to mark the 150th<\/sup> year of the Solemn Declaration by Pope Pius IX of St Joseph as Patron of the Universal Catholic Church. This will conclude on the 8th<\/sup> December 2021.<\/p>\n

St Peter Julian Eymard said \u201cDevotion, to St Joseph is one of the choicest graces that God can give a soul, for it is tantamount to revealing the entire treasury of our Lord\u2019s graces. When God wishes to raise a soul to greater heights, he unites it to St Joseph by giving it a strong love for the good Saint\u201d. Please go to the Parish websites\/facebook for Prayers to St Joseph.<\/p>\n

Parish Finances: <\/strong>At this time when we have limited access to the Church and have no public services our Parish income is greatly affected. The Parish and Diocese are dependent on your weekly donations to enable bills to be paid, to make repairs\u00a0and maintain our church properties, as well as supporting the clergy and the ongoing pastoral work of our Parish and the Diocese. Please continue to support St Johns\/St Thomas and the Diocese of Paisley at this difficult time. You may wish to consider a Standing Order<\/strong> to be paid directly to the parish account (weekly\/monthly). You can download the form from the Parish websites or one can be posted to you. Thank you to all those who have recently moved to Standing Order so as to be able to support our finances regularly. Another way of helping the parish is by gift aiding your donations. If you are a tax payer Gift Aid increases your donation by 25%<\/strong>, your Gift Aid donation would be worth 25p more for every \u00a31 donated.<\/p>\n

Please pray for those who have died recently especially:<\/strong> Ann Alford, Derek Gillespie, Maria Hannigan, Peter Harkins, Janet Mullen, James Christopher Taylor and the Anniversaries of<\/strong>, Brian Corcoran, Mary Donnelly, May Duffin, Charlotte Fitzpatrick, Rose Gormley, Eddie Hone, Jim Leasey,\u00a0 Pat Mc Namara, Charles O\u2019Neill, Lex Shields.<\/p>\n
