at 7pm and Mass at 7.30pm, with tea and biscuits afterwards. The celebrant will be

FEAST OF ST MARY MAGDALENE, 22 JULY
Pope Francis has authorised that the liturgical celebration of St Mary Magdalene be
raised from the rank of Memorial to that of Feast. Raising her liturgical profile is a
recognition of how the biblical figure of Mary Magdalene embodies some of the
Church's major current emphases: the promotion of the dignity of women, the need
to proclaim the Good News of the Resurrection, and divine mercy.
Concert by the Palestine Youth Orchestra (PYO) in Glasgow Royal Concert Hall on
Tues 26th July at 7.30pm. Tel 0141 353 8000. Part of the 32nd International Society
for Music Education conference. See Notice Board.
