Bishops' Conference of Scotland Visit Ad limina apostolorum

 

From 4th - 7th February 2010 the members of the Bishop's Conference of Scotland will be in Rome for their visit ad limina apostolorum.  Every five years the bishops of a country visit Rome to pray at the tombs of the apostles (whose succesors they are), to meet with the Holy Father and with various members of the Dicasteries (Curial Departments) to discuss the wellbeing of their Diocese. In his Pastoral Message issued before this visit, Bishop Philip has asked for the prayers of the Diocese and in turn has promised also to pray for us while visiting the tombs of the apostles St. Peter and St. Paul.

Bishop Philip's Pastoral Message can be found below.
