  • St Declan's Well and on to the Round Tower Before Breakfast
    _____________________________________________________________________________________________ St Declan’s Way - 7 Day Irish Camino, Sunday 26th September to Saturday 2nd October 2021 “Our Lady’s Hospice & Care Services are delighted to be the first charity to undertake the Irish Camino ‘St Declan’s Way’ which predates the Spanish Camino by circa 400 years. This will be a very special and unique experience for our supporters, taking them 100 kms down paths trodden by saints of old, past castles and forts, holy wells and breath-taking views...” Emily Barton, Senior Manager Public Fundraising _____________________________________________________________________________________________ The 100 kms (62 miles) ancient path of St. Declan’s Way is very much a journey back in time linking the ancient ecclesiastical centres of Ardmore in County Waterford and Cashel in County Tipperary. St Declan brought Christianity to the Déise region of Waterford around 415 AD shortly before the arrival of St. Patrick to Ireland. St Patrick did not come further south than Cashel in his mission to bring the Christian story to the people of Ireland. St. Declan left Ardmore in Waterford and made the return journey to Cashel to meet St. Patrick on many occasions and so the pilgrim route was born. St Declan’s Way remains faithful to the medieval pilgrimage and trading routes etched out on the landscape through the centuries. Following these ancient trails with Dr Phil and Elaine will leave imprints that will last a lifetime. On our Camino, we quite literally walk in the steps of those who have gone before. When our own stories merge with the stories of old, it is then the magic happens.

We hope you will enjoy the experience of Cappoquin’s rich and varied heritage, and that the plaques and lecterns will complement the material contained in the booklet and maps.

Down by the River (Walking trail) The right angled bend in the Blackwater river at Cappoquin dates back at least as far as seventy million years. It came about, according to most scholars, as a result of a phenomenon called ‘river capture’, involving the original river which flowed through the area, the Suir, diverting its course around modern Ardfinnan and heading eastwards to Waterford.

The purpose of the review is to confirm that current safeguarding practice complies with the standards set down within the guidance issued by the Sponsoring Bodies in February 2009, and that all known allegations and concerns had been appropriately dealt with. To achieve this task, safeguarding practice in each Church authority is to be reviewed through an examination of case records and through interviews with key personnel involved both within and external to a diocese or other authority.

  • Safeguarding Children
    ORDER OF CISTERCIANS of the Strict Observance MOUNT MELLERAY ABBEY MOUNT ST JOSEPH ABBEY MELLIFONT ABBEY BETHLEHEM ABBEY Safeguarding Children Policies & Procedures 2014 INTRODUCTION This document – Order of Cistercians of the Strict Observance in Ireland - Safeguarding Children: Policy and Procedures 2014 – is the interim policy & procedures which have been adopted in our monasteries of Cistercian monks in Ireland while we await the nationwide document due to be produced in 2015 by the NBSCCCI. This document replaces the policies which up to now have been in place in our monasteries and is introduced to ensure that our policy, procedures and practice adhere to the standards outlined in the Safeguarding Children: Standards and Guidance Document for the Catholic Church in Ireland 2008. We are committed to ensuring that our policy and procedures enable us to respond to the needs of those we serve in a holistic, realistic and effective healing way. Cistercian monasteries do not offer an overtly direct service to children and our Guesthouses provide for adults rather than children. 1 Nonetheless we are fully committed to the importance of safeguarding children and ensuring that they are welcomed, nurtured, cherished and protected in any contact which they may have with our monasteries and any of our monks, staff or volunteers. There are two fundamental practices that underpin our safeguarding policy: • Firstly we endeavour to ensure that we work together with An Garda Síochána, the PSNI, An Tusla, the HSC(NI), the NBSCCCI and our local dioceses. • Secondly we undertake to respond in a timely manner, ensuring that no child or vulnerable adult is left in an abusive situation.

EARLY CISTERCIANS. 0 OUNT MELLERAY ABBEY, situated in Co. Waterford on the southern slopes of the Knockmealdown mountains, about four miles north- west of Cappoquin and distant no more than five or six miles from the borders of Tipperary, was founded in the year 1833. The monks of Mount Melleray are members of the Cistercian or Trappist Order, an Order of the Benedictine family, founded at Citeaux in France in 1098. The founder was not St. Bernard, as is com- monly believed, but St. Robert of Molesme, who, through his desire to observe the Holy Rule of St. Benedict more perfectly, left the monastery of which he had been Abbot, with some twenty companions, and settled at a place called Citeaux, in the diocese of Chalons-sur-Saone, to-day the diocese of Dijon, from which city it is fifteen miles distant.
