PRAYER FOR UKRAINE
We will continue to offer Mass for the people of Ukraine and for peace each Wednesday (when not impeded by a funeral Mass) for as long as is necessary. If you have family, friends or neighbours who are Ukrainian or of Ukrainian heritage, please let them know that we are offering this prayer each Wednesday, and they are welcome to join us.

 Welcome to Saint Vincent’s

 If you are a visitor to Saint Vincent’s this weekend, please feel welcome! If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask. Here is some information to help you feel at home:

 Refreshments after Mass: Everyone is very welcome to stay behind after Sunday morning Masses and share a cuppa! Tea and Coffee are served in the Parish Centre on the opposite side of the carpark after 9.00 a.m. and 11.00 a.m. Masses.

 Toilets: The toilet is located near the side entrance: children should not go out of Church unaccompanied. Please use the disinfectant wipes to clean all surfaces after every use—dispose of them in the bin but do not flush them down the toilet. Thank you.

 Saint Vincent’s Parish Centre: The Parish Centre is available for parish use and outside bookings. Please contact Robert Allen on 0758 320 7810 for all enquiries.

Please pray for each other, and especially those who are ill or afraid. If you require help please do not hesitate to telephone

GIFT AID COSTS YOU ABSOLUTELY NOTHING
If you are a taxpayer and you sign a Gift Aid Form the Parish gets 25% of your contribution back from the government.
It is as simple as that!
Your information is confidential and, while it would be great if you could contribute every week, it is not essential; the amount reclaimed from the taxman is based on the amount donated and not on any fixed weekly amount. All that is needed is that you sign a confidential form available from Fr. James or Mike Rowley (contact details on GROUPS page) and return it to them. Only 50% of our weekly collection is Gift Aided so we are losing out on a very significant free handout from the taxman.Read more....
