Lord hear us
For freedom of heart: that we may never be taken in by the illusions of wealth, fame, power, or control, nor allow these to dominate our lives.
Lord hear us
For all who have responsibility in teaching or guiding other people: that God will guide them in helping others to recognize their gifts, what they can do with their lives, and the deepest truth that God has planted in their hearts.
Lord hear us
For all who bear the burden of poverty: that God will sustain them each day and help us to be generous with our gifts and possessions.

The Invitation: Lord, I am not worthy. . . . . . . . .
My soul proclaims the Lord my God, my Spirit sings his praise!
He looks on me, he lifts me up, and gladness fills my days.
All nations now will share my joy, his gifts he has outpoured;
his little one he has made great; I magnify the Lord.
For those who love his holy name, his mercy will not die.
His strong right arm puts down the proud and lifts the lowly high.
He fills the hungry with good things, the rich he sends away.
The promise made to Abraham is filled to endless day.

Great Scottish Swim for Yorkhill
‘A friend & I have agreed to swim one mile in the Loch at Strathclyde Park on Saturday 21st August, as part of the Great Scottish Swim. (one mile is the equivalent of 64 lengths at a swimming pool), My friend’s nephew has been treated at Yorkhill since he was born 3 years ago and he still attends regularly. I know you will all agree that this is a very worthwhile cause and hope you will be able to sponsor me in my very first open-water swim!’ With thanks, Eileen Duffy
Congratulations to the family of Eilidh Louise who was baptised last week. Picture next week – I hope.
If you would like to attend the Mass with the Pope in Bellahouston Park on 16th September, please ensure that you fill in the form – we have to apply for the tickets this week.
The St Mungo Singers begin the next session on Sunday 8th August. Mass and short business meeting followed by rehearsal focusing on the Papal mass at Bellahouston. There will be a regearsal on Sunday 15th August at the usual time, but a quorum of singers will also sing for the Ordination Mass in St Mary’s at 11.30.
Cantors, please pick up your list of psalms for the next few months from the organ.
Mass at Bellahouston on 16th September with Pope Benedict 16th
St Leo’s parish has been allocated 92 places at the Mass. Further details will be made available next week, but meantime we need to have some idea of who would like a place at the Mass. Please note that everyone will need to be in their place by 3.00 on September 16th. The Mass is, of course, out of doors, and so we all need to take account of the weather. Seating is not provided so we need to think of how we handle that! So that the cost of getting there is shared out equally across the country – that means we contribute the same amount as people coming from the Orkneys, the Western Isles, the Scottish Borders etc – each parish is asked to provide £20 per pilgrim. We will need to discuss how we can raise that amount and try to ensure that it is fun doing so! Maybe we could have a ’super-fete’ as part of it!
| Congratulations to Eddie and Margaret Murtagh on their anniversary – 60 years and they are still smiling at each other and at all of us! They are seen here with grandson Brendan – the organist from Australia who played for us recently. |
