Bishop Joseph Devine |
The Diocese of
Motherwell was erected as a Suffragan See of
the Archdiocese of Glasgow by the Apostolic
Constitution Maxime interest of the 25th May
1947.
Since its foundation our diocese
has both grown and decreased in size. However
in recent years a large number of new housing
developments, and thus the arrival of many young
families who have taken up residency in the
diocese, are giving us new hope of life in the
future. |
We hope this
web site maybe of interest to you. Whether you
know our Diocese well and are just looking for
further information, or it has been a while
since last you visited the Diocese, or you may
just be surfing and have found us by accident
- either way, we hope you find something of
use to yourself.
Lastly, we pray that we may face that future
in the same spirit as our forefathers confident
that, with God's continued help and our efforts,
his work in the Diocese of Motherwell may be
accomplished for many years to come. |
