OFFERTORY COLLECTION
Last weekend's Offertory collection
amounted to £876.82. We are grateful for your generous support of the Parish.
Banker's Orders amount to an average of £4000 per month.
BANKER'S
ORDERS, GIFT AID AND WILLS
Have you thought of using a Bankers Order? It assists
us with the safe handling of cash. Have you signed a Gift Aid Form? If you pay
tax, then every £1 you give to the Parish is worth £1.28 to us. Would
you consider remembering Saint Peter's in your will?
PARISH

to £330.59 - many thanks.

of the Cheery Cup, Glasgow Street, Ardrossan (469588) and Carol Ann of O'Really’s,
Princes Street, Ardrossan (604333) can be available to cater. We cannot provide
a drinks licence and we require enough time to cancel the use of the Centre by
the Mother and Toddlers Group. Booking of the centre is via Fiona on 606424. Book
the caterers is by direct contact. Arrangements for providing a drink can be made
with the caterers but the bar is not available.
PEREGRINATIO PRO
CHRISTO - JOURNEYING FOR CHRIST
The Legion of Mary is proposing a week’s visit
of a team of Legion members to the parish from 4 to 11 July. The team - all of
them from Ireland - will work and pray with local members of the Legion in our
parish - visiting homes, meeting with people, gathering for Mass, meals and so
on. We need some help. The team will consist of a priest and ten lay members.
They are expected to pay their own way with regard to bed and breakfast accommodation
so we need some places for them to stay. I can accommodate the priest. I need
to know this week! The team requires lunch and an evening meal in the Parish Centre.
I need some groups - for example, a group of friends - who would provide a meal
each evening for the Legion team. We can make a rota. Again, I need to know soon.
We need help with a musical evening and with music for the Mass on the Friday
evening. Everyone is welcome to the Mass and the social event. More information
will be available as the planning develops.

Africal Children's Choir will be performing in Saint Cuthbert’s Parish Church,

ITALIAN NIGHT
The Italian
Night was a complete sell-out and another is being planned. Very many thanks to
all those who gave so much time and energy into making it such a successful evening.
£1400 profit from the evening £1400 split evenly between the Twinning
Association and the parish. This paid for the new dishwasher in the Parish Centre
kitchen). It is planned to repeat the Italian Night as a St Andrew’s/Italian Night
on Friday 27 November if the details can be finalised. Already more than half
of the tickets are ordered. To pre-book, call the Parish Office.
CHILDREN’S
LITURGY
We are in need of more volunteers for the Children’s Liturgy for the
coming August session. As it takes a little time to gain disclosure, we need to
think ahead. Please consider becoming a volunteer, especially if your child is
currently in Primary 3 as they will be taking part in the Sacramental Preparation
next year or if your child will be joining our Pre-5 Liturgy Group in August.
If you are interested, please contact the Parish Office on 464063 or Annie Watt.
