...and a cheery welcome in Glasgow from the Sisters of the Gospel of Life, doing wonderful work and at the heart of a great team of young people, including seminarians. These young men will be off to the Scots College in Rome later this year: a sign of hope for the Church of tomorrow.
Lively talk over mugs of tea surrounded by stacks and stacks of all sorts of donated goods, clothes, babyware and more, given by Glaswegians who have long made the Sisters' work their own.
Main reason for the whole trip, however, was a meeting of the Editorial Board of FAITH magazine...you will see the results of our efforts when the next edition of the magazine comes out in Sept.
Fabulous, fabulous drive through the Borders, glorious hills, everything fresh and green, a joy after hot sticky London.
This morning, prayer with the Sisters in the chapel of their house in Glsagow, and then Mass in the beautiful Cathedral, a grand start to the day.

As a resident of the Archdiocese of Glasgow I would be interested to know how many seminarians from the Archdiocese are about to go to the Scots College
Not many. But every single one is a help. You might meet some future seminarians if you go to the Glasgow Faith Forum: info here:www.faith.org.uk/events/glasgow-faith-forum-1
And if you want to help, a donaion to FAITH would be put to good use, plus your prayers of course, and perhaps some support for the Archdiocesan Vocations project this Autumn: more info here - http://www.rcag.org.uk/
