75th anniversary of St Monica's Parish Church in Coatbridge

That this House acknowledges the 75th anniversary of St Monica’s Roman Catholic Parish Church in Coatbridge; recognises that the parish was founded during the post-Second World War wave of church building in the Diocese of Motherwell; further recognises that following its establishment in September 1950, the first Mass was held in a barn in 1953, prior to the church building opening in 1957; notes this year also marks the 20th anniversary of St Monica’s Parish Priest, Rev. Ghislain Mulumanzi, being ordained into the priesthood; understands and celebrates the role St Monica’s Parish Church plays as a community anchor, through its rich history of volunteer groups, family-oriented programmes, spiritual services, and educational ties, cultivating fellowship, support, and spiritual growth across generations; congratulates all involved in preparing the recent 75th anniversary Mass, led by Bishop Joseph Toal, and offers the clergy and parishioners of St Monica’s very best wishes for the future.
