Pag e 7 No 5484 www.sconews.co.uk Friday September 14 2012 | £1 Welcoming his ministry with open arms I Archbishop Philip Tartaglia insists he is ready for the challenges ahead as Archbishop of Glasgow By Ian Dunn GLASGOW’S new archbishop has said that all Catholics must embrace the New Evange- lisation as the great ‘challenge of their life- time,’ at his installation Mass last Saturday. Archbishop Philip Tartaglia showed how seri- ously he takes that mission by announcing the appointment of Mgr Paul Conroy, the general sec- retary of the Bishops’ Conference of Scotland and a key organiser of Pope Benedict XVI’s visit to Scotland in 2010, to be his vicar general. Challenge At his installation at St Andrew’s Cathedral, the new Archbishop of Glasgow was warmly wel- comed to his role by Cardinal Keith O’Brien, his predecessor, Archbishop Emeritus Mario Conti, the bishops of Scotland, priests, religious and lay peo- ple of Glasgow Archdiocese as well as representa- tives of civic Scotland. He was clear, however, that he knows the scale of the task that lies ahead. “I want us all to embrace the New Evangelisa- tion as the special challenge of our lifetime; to wit- ness to each other and to the wider community the saving message of the love and mercy of God in Jesus Christ in all its fullness,” he said. “We must make it clear that the messages we communicate to the world about the common good, about the spiritual health of our land, about the sacredness of human life, about marriage and the family, about the alleviation of poverty and the pursuit of justice, about care for the marginalised in our soci- ety—all these have but one source, and He is Jesus Christ, born of Mary, who has come to us from the Archbishop Philip Tartaglia, flanked by his brother Father.” bishops and clergy from throughout the archdiocese, The Papal nuncio to Great Britain, Archbishop work as general secretary of the Bishops’ Confer- Fidelity to God offers all those gathered to join with him in the sign of Antonio Mennini’s representative, Mgr Brian ence of Scotland, to assist Archbishop Tartaglia peace during the Mass for the inauguration of his Udaigwe, first counsellor of the Papal Nunciature, and to serve the priests and the people of Glasgow The archbishop, who was wearing the same vest- ministry as Archbishop of Glasgow at the city’s St spoke at the end of Mass and also conveyed a mes- Archdiocese as vicar general.’ ments that Pope Benedict wore at his Mass at Andrew’s Cathedral on the Feast of the Nativity of the sage from the Vatican. “I hope I will be able to rely on the support of the Glasgow’s Bellahouston Park two years ago, said Blessed Virgin Mary, Saturday September 8 He urged this ‘joyful diocese,’ its priests and prayers and friendship of the whole archdiocesan that in the present time when ‘circumstances have PICS: PAUL McSHERRY people to ‘pray for the new archbishop’ and related community as I strive to fulfil my new responsibil- forced us to reflect upon religious freedom,’ the the ‘gratitude of the Holy Father to Archbishop ities to the best of my ability,” he said. “I am grate- Church will be truly free only by rejecting cover with eagerness and joy the truth, the Faith, Conti for his life and ministry in service of the ful to the archbishop for giving me this opportunity ‘alliances with earthly powers’ and depending the sanctifying and transforming potential of the Church.’ to work closely with him as he embarks on his min- ‘solely on Jesus Christ and His Gospel.’ sacraments, the teaching and maternal care of the Cardinal O’Brien then spoke on behalf of his istry as chief shepherd of the Church in Glasgow To that end, he said his plan for the archdiocese Church.” brother bishops in welcoming Archbishop and trust that God will strengthen, guide and was one based on spiritual and religious fidelity to Tartaglia to his new role. inspire him in everything he does.” God.

Covid-19 Virus Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, In this time of trial we, the Bishops of Scotland, wish to send you a word of reassurance and encouragement. We are all facing much uncertainty, anxiety and an unpredictable future. This situation touches on every aspect of our lives, individually and collectively. Sacred Scripture calls us repeatedly not to fear and to look to the help that comes to us from above. We are called to support one another in every way we can, especially those who are most vulnerable, through age or underlying conditions. Even in the midst of any necessary “distancing” we must stand by each other. We ask you to pray for the sick, those caring for them, for those in positions of responsibility with difficult decisions to make, indeed for our whole country and the entire human family. Most of all, we are being asked to put our trust in the living God who has created everything to be and to flourish and whose providence guides the course of world events. We put our trust in our Lord Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, and the true physician of our souls and bodies. During this Lent, especially, let us all take the opportunity to deepen our relationship with God. As your bishops and with our priests and deacons, we assure you of our continuing commitment to your spiritual, pastoral and sacramental needs.

  • News from the Catholic Church in Scotland Press Release
    NEWS FROM THE CATHOLIC CHURCH IN SCOTLAND PRESS RELEASE: Scottish Catholic Archives at Columba House to close as of Monday 8 April: Columba House, an early 19th-century townhouse in Edinburgh, which has been home to the Scottish Catholic Archives for over 50 years, is to close to researchers and members of the public from Monday 8 April 2013 until further notice. The archive collections are the responsibility of the Trustees of the Scottish Catholic Heritage Collections Museum (commonly called the Blairs Museum), who have taken the decision after receiving reports from specialists in archive conservation and historic buildings. The immediate cause of the closure has been the discovery of mould on items in the collection, which require urgent conservation treatment. This is the result of dampness in Columba House¹s main storage area in the sub-basement. Reports spanning a period of more than thirty years indicate that this has been a recurrent problem. Fortunately, an Agreement is already in place between the Trustees and the University of Aberdeen in terms of which the University agreed to house the archives on long-term loan. They will be accommodated in the University¹s 21st-century Special Collections Centre in the iconic Sir Duncan Rice Library. It is clear that the transfer from Edinburgh to Aberdeen is now not only desirable but also essential, to protect and preserve the historic archives for posterity, and to make them again available for research as soon as possible. Archbishop Mario Conti, Chairman of the Trustees, said: “We have emphasised for some time that Columba House was not fit for purpose.

Introduction 1.1 The Scottish Office has recently published for information and consultation a document entitled "Open and Accountable: Public Bodies in Scotland" which seeks to provide information on executive Non-Departmental Public Bodies and similar bodies such as health authorities in Scotland. 1.2 The document sets out plans to improve openness through increased accessibility and new appointment procedures: and identifies steps undertaken within the Scottish Office and public bodies to improve their management and supervision. 1.3 COSLA has circulated the document to local authorities and invited comments on the consultation paper by 9 September 1996 in order to assist COSLA in preparing its response to the document. 1.4 A copy of the Scottish Office paper is annexed as Appendix 1. Although the paper is consultative insofar as the Secretary of State has made clear that he will consider carefully all views on the document which are received, in large measure, the document is drafted in such a way as to give factual information on steps which have been taken or decisions taken within the Scottish Office in relation to improvement of the management and supervision of these public bodies. 1.5 The document firstly seeks to describe the non-departmental public bodies which are the principal subject of the document, identifying that "quangos" is a commonly used general term to cover nationalised industries, public corporations and NHS bodies in addition to non- departmental public bodies. 1.6 The document is intended to cover the non-departmental public bodies (NDPBs) with executive responsibilities in Scotland and NHS bodies (Health Boards and Trusts).
