Below is the document from the Scottish Catholic Bishops in preparation for COP 26.
Last week at this time we were confident that Pope Francis would attend the gathering, but this week has brought the news that Poe Francis will not be coming to Glasgow.
We need to recognise that Pope Francis is in his 80s now, and has a punishing schedule that many people half his age would struggle to maintain.
Perhaps this is a reminder to us of how much any Pope needs the support of our prayers. Let’s keep the Holy Father in our prayers during the lead up to Cop 26, and let’s pray for all the delegates who will gather in Glasgow
As we mentioned last week, we will use the Intercessions posted below unto and throughout our celebrations of Mass in the lead up to COP26 and beyond
