Congratulations to Fr Brian McLean (right), Lourdes Pilgrimage Director for Dunkeld diocese, and parish priest at St John Vianney, Alva, on being made a Canon of the Grotto. The announcement, by Bishop Patrick McKinney, came at a meeting of National Conference Diocesan Lourdes Pilgrimage Directors in Nottingham where he received the Special Medal and Certificate.
Fr Brian joins Dunkeld’s Fr Neil Gallagher in receiving this unique honour. The late Canon Michael Milton, an Administrator at St Andrew’s Cathedral, Dundee also held this distinguished title.
