Our Lady’s Lourdes Grotto in Carfin is Scotland’s national Marian Shrine. Our Diocese is fortunate enough to have this important shrine on our doorstep. Bishop Toal, in recent times, has encouraged parishes to make greater use of this shrine for prayer and devotion. With this in mind I invite everyone at St. Augustine’s to make every effort to attend our Parish Pilgrimage to the Grotto on Thursday 9th July. This invitation extends to individuals and families, as well as those family members and friends you may wish to invite.
You will find a timetable of the pilgrimage below. Please sign your name and contact details on the list in the porch if you intend to go. Please sign-up by this Monday 29th June. Please also indicate how many coach seats (£5pp) you require. You may also wish to use your own transport.
The cost of the return coach is £5 per person, payable on the day. Under 16’s travel free. The Grotto Café sells a good selection of hot food at lunchtime at reasonable prices.
