As an atheist - but fully aware how those with faith may feel, is there another RC church /priest in the area who you could talk to? |

Maggie No there isnt .The local church did do mass at another offshoot church but they closed it down as the number of congregation did not warrant it |

Can't believe this _when I was very immobile at home our priest at once asked if. wanted communion at home _we have some specially trained helpers who will do this and I am sure he would visit personally if asked |

When I was visiting Scotland I went to a "ladies evening" run by the church with my cousin, all about (yawwwwn) floral art. |

Hi Shirley. I was so very sorry to hear this and sadly, even as a practising Christian, I am not completely surprised. |

Scozz, it may have been somebody 'higher' up or written into something or other about the raffles. I was brought up a Baptist and we were not allowed to have raffles or anything similar on the church premises, nothing to do with the minister. (My mother never bought a raffle ticket in her life.) |

I would advise the same as Susan Wiv. It is a priests duty to adminster to the sick and disabled. I will say my local priest is an absolute Gem. |

Shirley have a word with Age-uk in your area,,,,they maybe have someone who could assist in getting husband there and back to mass,while you persue the other matter. |

The RC church my mom attended were so good / they arranged for her to be collected and bought back. The priest and nun visited her when she was in the home too. |

Its a disgrace that they are acting like this towards your OH. Perhaps if you Emailed the Pope at the Vatican he may kick someones butt and remind them of their duty.**M** |

Might be worth dropping the priest a quick line if you have a postal address for him, just in case it was the wrong email address or he has missed your email if he gets a lot of them. |
