HALL CAFÉ

We are keen to restart our Sunday morning hall café after both 9am and 11am Masses. We are looking for volunteers to organise its setting up and running. If we have a ‘healthy’ enough group of volunteers we will be able to work on a rota basis to prevent any pressure or workload on any volunteers. At present we have one volunteer – an ideal number would be to aim for between 9-12 volunteers. Please speak to Fr Frank or Deacon Tommy if you can help out.


AWARD IN CATHOLIC THEOLOGICAL EDUCATION

‘Called to share Christ’ as a Catechist in the Archdiocese – within our parish of St Ninian’s you could deepen your knowledge of Jesus Christ and the Catholic Faith and so share it with others. If you would like to become a parish Catechist and be involved in the Sacramental preparation of our children, a spirituality group of R.C.I.A. programme benefitting the life of our parish – please speak to Fr Frank or Deacon Tommy. Our parish will cover the cost of 2 candidates who would like to be considered for Catechetical Award/Course beginning this September (2022).
