I am thinking of you all and keeping you all in my prayers and will continue to offer Mass every day, praying for you all.

Please do not hesitate to contact me by phone for a chat (0131 663 4286), or if you are feeling isolated, if you are not able to get out for food, or if I can help in any other way.
If I am out – leave a message and I’ll try to get back as soon as I can.
I will try to do the same with e-mails, but please be aware that due to the volume of e-mails coming in, there is a danger that these may be lost track of.

Please think of anyone you know who may be isolated or anxious.
