Welcome to our website for the parishes of St. Joseph’s Faifley and St. Mary’s Duntocher.

Having celebrated the Feast of Pentecost, we are now in Ordinary time in the Church’s liturgical year. In many respects , we may still see this ordinary time  as something quite extraordinary as we establish the new normal. Things are, definitely, different and they present their own unique challenges.

However, the pandemic for all the chaos, that one level it has most certainly caused,  has also given many of us the opportunity to reflect and appreciate our life and our faith in a  different way. These could even be perceived as grace-filled moments.

As we make our way through the summer months, let God’s light as well as the natural light of day lift up our Spirits  and our faith. May we have the courage to meet and  embrace the challenges and the encounters of the crossroads with a renewed sense of purpose in the weeks and months ahead.

Fr. Paul
