FUNDRAISING FOR ST MARY'S CATHEDRAL LENTEN APPEAL

On Saturday 29th April, members of the Young Adults Group from St Mary's Cathedral will be undertaking a sponsored mountain climb to raise money for the Lenten Appeal to repair the cathedral's windows.

The group will climb Schiehallion in Perthshire, one of Scotland's highest peaks at 1,083m, involving an ascent of around 700m from the car park at Braes of Foss. Hopefully the Scottish weather will stay fair for us!

During the walk we will be praying the Rosary for the intentions of the cathedral parish and will gladly add your special intentions if requested. If you have any, please leave them in the clearly marked boxes at the back of the church.

To donate, look out for the forms at the back of the church or you can use the following link: https://forms.gle/qZthE2izHgiiugPW7
