          PETITION TO NICOLA STURGEON MSP

          The Knights of St Columba will be in attendance at all Masses in Blessed John Duns Scotus Parish over the weekend of 25th/26th February inviting all Constituents of Glasgow Southside to sign up, calling for no change in the status of Marriage under Scottish Law.

          Over the coming weeks Brothers will be attending all the Churches in Ms Sturgeons constituency before presenting the full petition to the MSP herself.

          Marriage between a man and a woman is the bedrock of society and is the best circumstances to raise children and as those in same sex relationships have all the benefits of Civil Partnerships there is no reason to change the definition of Marriage under theLaw.

          If you live in Glasgow Southside please sign our petition or if you wish a copy for your friends and family please request it through our CONTACTS PAGE.



          The Opportunity to Serve

          The New Evangelisation - A Call to Serve

          The Knights of St Columba offer ‘The Opportunity to Serve’

          For nearly a century the Knights of St Columba have answered the call of our faith whenever the need has arisen through ’Serving God by Serving Others’. Today the need is greater than ever 

          In September 2010, The Holy Father called us all to be New Evangelists at a time when profound poverty of spirit and faith exists in our countries. The Knights of St Columba have answered this call, and at the end of October this year will be launching nationally its initiative ‘The Opportunity to Serve’.

          As members of the Lay Apostolate we seek and invite more Catholic men to accept:

          ·         The Opportunity to join in the New Evangelisation and help spread God’s word and praise His name.

          ·         The Opportunity to assist our parishes and clergy

          ·         The Opportunity to safeguard the interests of Catholic youth

          ·         The Opportunity to promote and work for Pro Life Issues

          ·         The Opportunity to help those less fortunate than ourselves

          ·         The Opportunity to ‘Serve God by Serving Others

          This Opportunity is open to YOU today.

           

          This initiative is supported by the Rt Rev Malcolm McMahon OP, Bishop of Nottingham and Ecclesiastical Advisor to the Knights of Saint Columba.
           Fully supported by the Bishops of Scotland, England and Wales

          Province 1 formally celebrated its 90th Anniversary over the weekend of 26th/27th June 2010 with a Gala Dinner Dance in the KSC Club Moddiesburn and Holy Mass on the Sunday. His Grace Archbishop Conti and our Supreme Knight Brother Jon Jo McDonagh attended both events. Photographs of the occasion are on the 90th Anniversary
