For the Good of Souls

Welcome

Welcome to St Mirin’s Cathedral, the mother church of the Diocese of Paisley. Built in 1808, the original parish church was the first stone-built Roman Catholic church in post-Reformation Scotland. In 1948, the present building was raised to cathedral status, following the erection of the Diocese of Paisley in 1947.

Gospel Matthew 9:9-13โ€˜I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.โ€™At that time: As Jesus passed on from Capernaum, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax booth, and he said to him, โ€˜Follow me.โ€™ And he rose and followed him. And as Jesus reclined at table in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and were reclining with Jesus and his disciples. And when the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, โ€˜Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?โ€™ But when he heard it, he said, โ€˜Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. Go and learn what this means: โ€œI desire mercy, and not sacrifice.โ€ For I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.โ€™
