The Bishops' Conference of Scotland

The Roman Catholic Bishops in Scotland work together to undertake nationwide initiatives through their Commissions and Agencies.

The members of the Bishops' Conference are the Bishops of the eight Scottish Dioceses. Where appropriate the Bishops Emeriti (retired) provide a much welcomed contribution to the work of the conference. The Bishops' Conference of Scotland is a permanently constituted assembly which meets regularly throughout the year to address relevant business matters.

The Jubilee Prayer

Father in heaven,
may the faith you have given us
in your son, Jesus Christ, our brother,
and the flame of charity enkindled in our hearts by the Holy Spirit, reawaken in us the blessed hope for the coming of your Kingdom.

May your grace transform us into tireless cultivators of the seeds of the Gospel.
May those seeds transform from within both humanity and the whole cosmos in the sure expectation of a new heaven and a new earth,
when, with the powers of Evil vanquished,
your glory will shine eternally.

May the grace of the Jubilee reawaken in us, Pilgrims of Hope, a yearning for the treasures of heaven. May that same grace spread the joy and peace of our Redeemer throughout the earth. 

To you our God, eternally blessed, be glory and praise for ever.

Amen

🇻🇦On the Feast Day of St John Paul II, his teaching from the encyclical Centesimus Annus reminds us that our faith is not a private matter; it must be lived out by concrete action in our communities and throughout the world.

✝️Jesus calls us to this way of living in the Gospels: in the Sermon on the Mount, He instructs us to be peacemakers and to hunger and thirst for what is right. And in the Parable of the Last Judgment, Christ identifies Himself with the most vulnerable, declaring that we are close to Him when we respond to their needs: “whatever you did for one of the least of these… you did for me.”

🙏May St John Paul II inspire us to take up active discipleship by living the Gospel not only in word, but in deeds of compassion, courage, justice and hope. St John Paul II, pray for us!
