The Bishops of Scotland have published a Pastoral Letter, ‘On the Holy Eucharist,’ which is to be read or otherwise distributed this Sunday. There are copies at the back of the church and you can also find the letter here.
This year’s World Meeting of Families takes place in Rome from the 22-26th June. Pope Francis has asked us to join him in prayer and celebration, especially during next weekend. The theme of the World Meeting of Families this year is Family Love: a Vocation and a Path to Holiness. A prayer card has been produced and is available for all parishioners. Please take one.
On Tuesday, in St. Columba’s Cathedral, Oban, Bishop Brian McGee will ordain Rev Philip Bua as a priest of Argyll & the Isles. This is a joyful occasion for our Diocese and I ask you to pray for Rev Philip.
Bishop Brian will be in Glencoe, Taynuilt and Mingarry for next weekend’s Masses. Fr Philip will be taking over the following two weekends (the 2nd/3rd and 9th/10th July). On the 15th July, Fr Joseph Udoh MSP will arrive in Glencoe to take up residence as parish priest of Glencoe and Mingarry.
It is this week when I move from being parish priest in Glencoe, Mingarry and Taynuilt and take up my new appointment as parish priest of Rothesay.
I would like to thank all parishioners for your support and help since I moved here from Lewis and Harris. An odd time, since the overwhelming majority of my stay here has been affected by the pandemic.
You have my prayers, my thanks for my time here and my best wishes for the future.
