Community Wall in Place: Join Us in Honouring and Remembering Loved Ones
We are delighted to share the good news that our community wall is now in place at the back of the church. It’s looking great and from a personal point of view, it is so lovely to see the names of former parishioners. Many thanks to all who ‘made this happen’ especially the ‘2 Jims’, Jim Ashwood and Jim Hampton.
We are now collecting forms for the next batch of names to go on the wall so if you would like the names of your loved ones to be included, please get in touch.

First Communion Celebration at St. Ninian’s Church.
Saturday 15th June was a very special day for 12 boys and girls from St Ninian’s Primary School who received their First Communion in St Ninian’s Church, Menzieshill. The lovely Mass was celebrated by Fr. Johney and families and staff joined them for their happy holy day. Prayers and best wishes to them all.
Below, is a video of the children singing and signing their special hymn, ‘Come to the Table of Mercy’.
Community Wall
We are planning to put up a memorial wall in St Ninian’s Church and it will be named “St. Ninian’s, a Community Built in Spirit and Love”. This will be a space where you, your family, your loved ones, can be remembered for years to come on a commemorative brick wall and is a fund raiser to improve our existing hall facilities which are now too small and restrictive for our current needs.
The cost of a full brick is £50.00 one off payment or £25.00 for a half brick.
We hope we can count on your support to ensure that the space for community spirit within St. Ninian’s and St Clement’s can be expanded. If you are interested, download this form and return to the church or email ecogroupchat@gmail.com
St Clement’s First Communicants
Congratulations and blessings to the boys and girls from St Clement’s who made their First Communion on Saturday at St Ninian’s Church. It was a beautiful and memorable day in many ways for them all.
Mgr Aldo meets the Pope!
Our very own Mgr Aldo shares a joke with Pope Francis….. Read more about his meeting in Rome where he represented Scotland’s parish priests for the final session of the Synod of Synodality.
Didn’t our Walkers do well??
Wow! Our parishioners who took up the challenge of the Big Lenten Walk for SCIAF certainly put their best feet forward. The combined group from St Ninian’s and St Clement’s walked the roads and the miles round Dundee and have hiked home with an astonishing total of £5000!
Our super strollers send a huge THANK YOU to all who gave so generously.
This marathon effort has put the Parishes Together group at the top of the Cafod/SCIAF Justgiving page leader board, not just in Scotland, but for the whole of the UK!
So take a bow, St Ninian’s and St Clement’s, you may just have strolled into the SCIAF record books.
