It was lovely to see so many P4 pupils at yesterday’s DTIM Mass at St John’s church. The children participated well throughout, I was impressed with their focus during Fr Jock’s homily and whilst on the Altar. The Mass had a real family feel to it and it would be great to see the Primary 4 pupils in such numbers every Sunday.

Arlene from the St John’s Parish Sacramental team has asked me to remind parents about the sacramental masses on Sunday 6th February.
P3 Mass in preparation for the sacrament of Reconciliation will take place at St John’s church at 0930
