RE Department Archdiocese of Glasgow

Happy feast day to all staff, parents/carers and pupils at St George's Primary St George pray for us.

Many congratulations to our new catechists!
It was the end of a two year programme of study and reflection as seven lay people were formally commissioned as Catechists by the Archbishop to serve in parishes across the Archdiocese.
They have received their Award in Catholic Theological Education – which is an academic recognition reflecting 600 hours of study as part of a partnership between the Archdiocese of Glasgow and the University of Glasgow.
The new catechists are Catherine Dunipace from St. Andrew’s, Bearsden; Lindsey Short from St. Dominic’s, Bishopbriggs; Avril O’Sullivan from Immaculate Conception, Maryhill; Leslie Austin from St. Michael’s, Parkhead; Breege Bean from St. Eunan’s, Clydebank; Leonie Healey from St Gregory’s, Wyndford and William Docherty from St. Joachim’s, Carmyle.

Pupils from high schools across the Archdiocese joined Archbishop Nolan in St Andrew's Cathedral tonight for our annual High Schools' Mass.
