The Ozanam Club is a social club for adults with additional support needs and meets on the 2nd and 4th Fridays of the month in St. Mirin's, Cathedral Halls (6.30pm to 9.30pm). The Club is run by the Society of St. Vincent de Paul and benefits greatly from the support of many non-SSVP volunteers. If you are a “people person", with patience and a good sense of humour and have some time to spare on a Friday evening then you could be exactly who we're looking for! If you would like to find out more, please phone Caroline O'Neill 07722445109 (After 6pm). (All volunteers must be 18+ and will require a Paisley diocesan PVG)

A group, comprising of members of the various Diocesan Commissions, has been formed to move MATN forward. They are currently collating data including, but not limited to, finance, infrastructure and Mass attendances to further inform the process and enable additional engagement with parishes and clusters. The Diocese thanks Canon Eddie Cameron and his Steering Group for all the preparation and collation of materials, and thanks also go to all who participated in the process. A number of valuable initiatives and proposals were suggested and are being explored, but further consensus will be required before implementation, as no concrete proposals were submitted. Please continue to pray that our MATN programme continues to guide the Diocese of Paisley from Maintenance to Mission. Any communications should be directed to matn@rcdop.org.uk .
