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."
