Final appeal to Catholics ahead of Westminster assisted suicide vote
Bishop John Keenan has issued a pastoral letter urging Catholics across Scotland to contact their MPs ahead of the return of the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill to the House of Commons on Friday 11 September.
The Bill, reintroduced by Lauren Edwards MP, would permit eligible terminally ill adults in England and Wales to receive assistance to end their lives. A similar Bill was defeated in the Scottish Parliament last March.
Although this new legislation would apply only to England and Wales, Bishop Keenan stresses that this remains an important moment for Catholics in Scotland. The outcome at Westminster could have significant consequences north of the border and potentially reignite attempts to legalise assisted suicide in Scotland.

2026 has been proclaimed by Pope Leo as the “Year of St Francis of Assisi” and to mark the 800th Anniversary of St Francis’ death. The Bishop hopes that we can mark this special anniversary in the Diocese in the coming months.
We began the Franciscan Jubilee in the Diocese at St John Ogilvie’s Church, Blantyre, on Monday 2nd February, the Feast of the Presentation of Our Lord. It was the World Day of Prayer for Religious, and seemed appropriate to mark the Feast and to begin the Franciscan Jubilee with the Poor Clare Sisters, who recently moved to St John Ogilvie’s.
Bishop Toal has designated St John Ogilvie’s as a place of Pilgrimage throughout the Jubilee of St Francis.
