ST LEONARDS RC CHURCH

COFFEE MORNING

The Hospice Coffee Mornings will be taking a break during the school summer holidays.The church are very grateful for the generosity and support of our faithful band, which enabled us last Tuesday to hand over cheques for £750 to each of the St Andrew’s and Kilbryde Hospices. This brings to £2600 the total raised since September 2018.

SUMMER SCHEDULE

Sunday morning Masses in the East Kilbride parishes will remain at their usual times.

However, only two parishes will have a Vigil Mass and only two parishes will have a Sunday evening Mass. So, instead of having sixteen Sunday Masses in East Kilbride, we will reduce that number to twelve Sunday Masses during July and August.

Bishop Toal is very much aware that he and his clergy have a duty and responsibility to ensure that our people have an opportunity to fulfil their Sunday obligation to attend Mass. However, we all now need to adapt our schedule in the light of fewer priests being available to celebrate the number of Sunday Masses currently available throughout the diocese.

The revised Sunday Schedule will run from the weekend of until August 24.

Details can be found in your parish bulletin/newsletter.

Next weekend, we will provide a handout giving details of the revised summer schedule for the whole deanery of Rutherglen and East Kilbride.

We ask you to give your support to the summer schedule of Sunday Masses and we thank you for your understanding of the situation we face during the summer of 2019.
