RENOVATING CHURCH – The work on St Eugene’s Church, Glenock will commence soon.  Immense gratitude is due to contributing parishioners for raising substantial funds to date.  Because our grant is for heritage, the NLHF providers have stipulated that only part of the award can be spent on the restoration of the building.  We must continue to promote the heritage and history of the area.  Therefore, the parish will still require considerable financial support to preserve our remarkable church for future generations.  Thank you for donations and for submitting your yellow envelope every week.  The good Lord will reward your constant fidelity and generosity.
