Bishop ends week-long Mass services on double-decker

by Tola Mbakwe

The special bus will end its week-long tour of central Scotland at the cenotaph, Paisley Cross with a Mass at 2pm.

The bus tour is the brainchild of the 'Friends of Divine Mercy Scotland'.

Organiser of the initiative, Helen Border said:  "Inspired by the call from Pope Francis to 'Go out to the people and take the Church to them' we've decided to do just that, with a church on wheels."

The bus has visited Paisley, Coatbridge, Greenock, Barrhead and Glasgow during the week. 

Bishop John said: "This is a fantastic initiative and a wonderful example of evangelisation, which takes the church out into the world.

"I hope this venture will be the first of many similar initiatives which offer people a route back to a relationship with God."

A Monthly Gift Of $11 Makes A World Of Difference

In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.

Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.

For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.

Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
