Saint Helen's, Langside

ACN – RED WEDNESDAY 22ND NOVEMBER 2023
St Helen’s church will be lit up in RED to shine a light on Christian persecution, but also highlight the injustices perpetrated against
other faith groups.
Red is the Christian colour of martyrdom, a symbol of the innocent victims of religious persecution. RED WEDNESDAY is a day to wear thr colour ‘RED’ and support Aid to the Church in Need (ACN) to Break the Silence and be a voice for those people who cannot live out their faith without fear of persecution.
Join Fr Benneth at 10am Mass this Wednesday as he lights a red candle offering our prayers and support on the day
