Tyrone. BT75 0QP and Christmas I had been Tel: 028 895 22461 writing in the Clogher Diocesan Magazine Email: [email protected] about how we as Christian believers can proclaim There is an old Roman proverb that “if the vessel is not the Gospel in a world that clean than everything that is poured into it turns sour”. That we are very much part is why Jesus sometimes speaks in what appear to us to be of and many of whose very extreme terms “If your eye offends you, pluck it out… characteristics (and faults) if your foot causes you to stumble cut it off”. It seems to me we share. I had tried to that Jesus uses this very emphatic language to drive home give a little bit of a sketch the point that we must be strong at the spiritual centre of our of how the vocation of being if we are to be any use in the world or to the world. the Church to witness to Jesus Christ Himself could not redeem the world without frst the true king could ft in with our vocation to live under the passing through the temptation and agony in the garden and authority of other kings and/or parliaments. in his letters St. Paul emphasises that to be a good member At the beginning of 2016 I want to go back to basics - to the of the body we must be strong enough in Christ’s might to very rudimentary truth that we will only be of any use to win the victory in a fearful struggle. I know myself from bitter God in the world and in the Church if we do not neglect to experience that this spiritual centre cannot be maintained nurture our own spiritual personality. without regular prayer. Although prayer could be described The spiritual health of a society or a parish depends on as “being with God with other people on our hearts” it can the personality of those who make it up and the more we be much more than simply a list of requests. Prayer has, at its are involved in our communities or our church the more centre, a yearning of the heart for God. We have all felt that we feel the need for character in ourselves and in others. yearning at times of trouble and sorrow when we have been And the more serious we are about the health of our own at our lowest ebb emotionally and physically. Our discipline spirituality (our character) the more we realise the need for is to make that yearning real in ordinary times and not just self-discipline. when we are in desperation. We often speak about prayer as though it is easy. Anyone who has tried to have a regular and deepening prayer life knows it is not, especially in a world where we have so many responsibilities and so many apparently unavoidable claims upon our time. There is no ST MARKS point being unrealistic about this. It really does take quite an effort to fnd a regular time for prayer; a time when we can AGHADRUMSEE bring our whole selves into the presence of God. It is just as unrealistic to believe that there can be any growth in the spiritual life without it. And where here is no growth there Palm Praises will always be decay. Very often in prayer we either struggle to fnd the right words or we use too many words which have the unusual characteristic of saying the same thing again and again. WEEKEND OF MUSIC To some extent we in the Church of Ireland are lucky to have some very memorable prayers which we can fall back on when with the Ferguson we are tongue-tied or which we can use to “get us started”. Family and Friends For instance I know people who simply use the Collect of the week as the basis for the following week’s prayer. The collects are often very short but they are usually very tightly Saturday 19th March packed with spiritual food which grows in the mind and in the spirit when dwelt upon for a little longer. Such a way of from 10.30am - 5pm praying would not prevent us from offering other requests and thoughts to God but might just be helpful in helping us to approach Him in the right spirit.

  • December 2012
    Enniskillen Lisbellaw NEWSLETTER Volume 1, Issue 1 Christmas 2012 The local area has been a place of Christian faith since the days of Saint Patrick. In the years since, many have rightly put their faith and trust in Jesus Christ and have shared that faith. Once again, this Christmas, you are connecting with that faith community even as you read this. For this Newsletter comes to us as an initiative that grew out of this year’s parish gatherings, from the consequent Parish Pastoral Council and from ministry groups new and established in our parish. All of this is in the faith-filled service of Jesus Christ and of the people he calls together to be parish and church. We have always had four targets as a parish: paying attention to God’s Word; giving energy to building community; celebrating our faith worthily; reaching out to those who are hurting. We also have beautiful Canon Peter O’Reilly churches. I invite you to feel part of the faith community project here throughout the year. Welcome to Fr. David Donnelly, appointed here by our Bishop, Liam MacDaid; it will be Fr. David’s first Christmas among us. We keep in our prayers Fr. John Skinnader who has returned to the missionary work he loves: his blog is on our parish website. In the coming months, watch out for the World Youth Day initiative that will enable seventeen of our young parishioners to go on a unique journey of faith. For now, may I, along with my colleagues and our parish pastoral council, wish you the peace that comes in the shelter and kindness we give each other and in God’s promise that extends to us even now in the promise of the heavenly home that Christmas brings.

    DCU Business School RESEARCH PAPER SERIES PAPER NO. 31 November 1997 ‘Ulster Like Israel Can Only Lose Once’: Ulster Unionism, Security and Citizenship, 1972-97 Mr. John Doyle DCU Business School ISSN 1393-290X ‘ULSTER LIKE ISRAEL CAN ONLY LOSE ONCE’: ULSTER UNIONISM, SECURITY AND CITIZENSHIP, 1972-97. 1 ‘R EBELS HAVE NO RIGHTS ’ INTRODUCTION The idea that unionist political elites perceive themselves as representing a community which is ‘under siege’ and that their ideology reflects this position is regularly repeated in the literature. 2 Unionists are not uncomfortable with this description. Dorothy Dunlop, for example, is certainly not the only unionist politician to have defended herself against accusations of having a siege mentality by countering that ‘we are indeed under siege in Ulster.’ 3 A Belfast Telegraph editorial in 1989 talks of a unionist community ‘which feels under siege, both politically and from terrorism.’ 4 Cedric Wilson UKUP member of the Northern Ireland Forum said ‘with regard to Mr. Mallon’s comments about Unionist’s being in trenches, I can think of no better place to be ... when people are coming at you with guns and bombs, the best place to be is in a trench. I make no apology for being in a trench’ 5. Yet despite this widespread use of the metaphor there have been few analyses of the specifics of unionism’s position on security, perhaps because the answers appear self-evident and the impact of unionists’ views on security on the prospects for a political settlement are not appreciated. 6 This paper examines how the position of unionist political elites on security affects and reflects their broader views on citizenship.

    CONFIDENTIAL AND PERSONAL PAB/3497/DP St.,AN 88 PS/Secretary of State (L&B) - B PAB (87) 21 I attach the latest political analysis by PAB of developments in Northern Ireland since the early part of December. There was little political movement of note during the period although the prospect of further talks between the unionist leaders and the Secretary of State continues to engender a sense of optimism. The -Unionists 2. The latest round of "talks about talks" took place in London on 17 December when the Secretary of State and senior officials met the two unionist leaders who are reported as continuing to press for the possibility of replacing the Agreement, suggesting alternative structures to it, and the closure of the Secretariat while negotiations take place. There are reports that after six meetings the Government's position has been firmly explained and that it is now time to move on to more detailed talks. 3. In a Written Answer the day after this latest meeting the Secretary of State told Peter Robinson, "The Government remains committed to the Anglo-Irish Agreement. At the same time, I have made clear that we are very ready to consider constructive proposals which can command widespread support. Our policy is to seek an agreed basis on which greater responsibility can be devolved to elected representatives in Northern Ireland". We understand that the question was asked by Mr Robinson in an attempt to elicit some sign from HMG that it would c~nsider proposals, from unionists, which, if acceptable to all interested parties, could be seriously considered as alternatives to the Anglo-Irish Agreement.

Despite strenuous efforts, they failed to conquer the north west of Ireland and this part of Ireland remained in Irish hands until the end of the 16th century. The O’Neills and O’Donnells controlled Tyrone and Donegal and, from about 1300, the Maguires became the dominant clan in an area similar to the Crowning of a Maguire Chieftain at Cornashee, near Lisnaskea.

In the rest of the country Anglo Norman influence had declined considerably by the 15th century, their control at that time extending only to the walled towns and to a small area around Dublin, known as the Pale. However, from the middle of the 16th century England gradually extended its control over the country until the only remaining Gaelic stronghold was in the central and western parts of the Province of Ulster.
