Thanks to St Columbkille's Catholic Church

  • Submitted by: Clare Haughey, Rutherglen, Scottish National Party.
  • Date lodged: Tuesday, 19 December 2023
  • Motion reference: S6M-11702

That the Parliament thanks everyone involved with St Columbkille's Catholic Church, in Rutherglen, for everything that they have done for the local community in 2023; pays tribute to its year-round fundraising efforts for charitable and local causes; understands that, in December 2023, St Columbkille's Catholic Church parishioners raised over £3,700 for the charity, Mary’s Meals, which, it understands, will feed an estimated 196 school children for a full year; notes that the church’s facilities are also used by many local community groups and organisations, including for welfare clinics, sessions to help those experiencing bereavements, and dementia-friendly football memories groups; considers that places of worship, like St Columbkille's Catholic Church, are at the heart of communities, and wishes the whole church community the very best in 2024.
