Since launching six months ago, The Diocese of Paisley Podcast is celebrating its success, with 2.5k downloads (and counting) in more than 20 countries around the world.

The idea for the platform was initiated to highlight the great things happening throughout the Diocese, including major church renovations, Catechesis for young people and even Desert Island Hymns.

Bishop John Keenan said: "We have a busy and vibrant Diocese. There are many exciting events taking place. We would also like to acknowledge the work of our 16 Commissions, who look after every aspect of Diocesan life."

"It is amazing to think that what we are doing in the Diocese of Paisley is being listened to in our podcasts, as far away as Australia, North and South ​America, ​the Far East and Africa".

The Diocese of Paisley ​Podcase is available to listen to on our website: ​www.rcdop.org.uk/podcast or ​via the major streaming services, including Spotify, Amazon and Apple.
