Important Notices

•  Deacon John will continue to attend to routine administrative matters for the Parish. In case of emergency e.g. when a priest is required for administration of the Sacraments, assistance from a neighbouring parish should be requested. 

• SPECIAL COLLECTION FOR COMMUNICATIONS Next Sunday 29th May there will be a special collection for Communications. This collection pays for the national Scottish Catholic Media Office which provides a service to the press and media with information on the activities of the Church in Scotland. The Office supports two employees. Please put your donation in the box at the back.

• SVDP COFFEE MORNING Last Sunday’s Coffee morning for SVDP raised £264 and a number of food parcels were handed out. Thank you to all who came along to support this event which will allow the SVDP to give help to many more people who are in need at this difficult time.

• CONFIRMATIONS  The children of Primary 7 from St Peter’s Primary School received the Sacrament of Confirmation on Thursday 19th May. Please keep these children in your prayers.​​​

• Thanks to all who supported the children in their preparation for receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation, especially the teachers and staff in St Peter’s Primary School, those who prepared the Church, those who prepared and supplied the music and Mgr. Denis Carlin who helped to prepare for and officiated at the ceremony. Thank you to everyone involved.

• Masks: Although the Government's masks mandate is now lifted in churches, you may consider it prudent to continue to wear a mask in Church.

• NEW COLLECTION ENVELOPES Are now available at the back of the church.  However, if you are in the Gift Aid Scheme, please collect your box of envelopes from the room next to the Sacristy. The box will have your own name on it so that the Parish can claim the tax back on the donations you will make over the next year.​​​​​​​  Parishioners registered as Gift Aid Contributors who no longer pay income tax should advise Deacon John of this change in their status as they are no longer eligible for the scheme.  Deacon John can be contacted by email at stpeter@rcdop.org.uk. Your contribution and cooperation is much appreciated.
