The booklet’s chief importance lay in the fact that ‘The bulk of the material … has come from the men who fashioned the county’s destinies in this revolutionary period of its history.’ This was reference to the immensely important project led by Fr Laurence Marron (1902-96), then parish priest of Latton, who, in the 1960s, along with Fr Peadar Livingstone, Fr Joseph Duffy and Eoghan Smyth, gathered statements from surviving repub- lican veterans of the revolutionary period in Monaghan. I believe I was the first scholar to have subsequently scrutinised these papers when completing a MA thesis in 1985-86 on Protestant politics and society in Monaghan. The statements were then kept in brown paper parcels, wrapped in twine, in the museum in Monaghan Town. Now known as the Monaghan War of Independence Files, this collection was digitised recently. It is probably the most important collection of War of Independence witness statements avail- able for any county in Ireland, and certainly much more comprehensive and illuminating than the Bureau of Military History Witness Statements for Monaghan collected some years previously. -

Ireland and the Reception of the Liturgical Changes of Vatican II
religions Article ‘Scrupulous and Timid Conformism’: Ireland and the Reception of the Liturgical Changes of Vatican II Gary Carville Mater Dei Centre for Catholic Education, Dublin City University, 9 Dublin, Ireland; [email protected] Abstract: The Second Vatican Council and, in particular, its Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, changed much in the daily life of the Church. In Ireland, a country steeped in the Catholic tradition but largely peripheral to the theological debates that shaped Vatican II, the changes to liturgy and devotional practice were implemented dutifully over a relatively short time span and without significant upset. But did the hierarchical manner of their reception, like that of the Council itself, mean that Irish Catholics did not receive the changes in a way that deepened their spirituality? And was the popular religious memory of the people lost through a neglect of liturgical piety and its place in the interior life, alongside what the Council sought to achieve? In this essay, Dr Gary Carville will examine the background to the liturgical changes at Vatican II, the contribution to their formulation and implementation by leaders of the Church in Ireland, the experiences of Irish Catholic communities in the reception process, and the ongoing need for a liturgical formation that brings theology, memory, and practice into greater dialogue. Keywords: Vatican II; liturgy; popular piety; Catholic Church; Ireland; vernacular; reform Citation: Carville, Gary. 2021. 1. Introduction ‘Scrupulous and Timid Conformism’: Ireland and the Reception of the The Constitution on the Liturgy, Sacrosanctum Concilium, was the first document Liturgical Changes of Vatican II. promulgated by Vatican II, on 4 December 1963. -

Bradshaw, PhD Professor of Liturgy University of Notre Dame, Indiana Many works in the various fields of liturgy and history refer to a Celtic Rite that was supposedly in use in Ireland prior to the arrival of Normans in the twelfth century. The existence of this liturgical rite and its supposed suppression at the hands of the Normans are usually taken for granted in these works. However some modern liturgical scholarship has begun to question the importance (or even the very existence) of the Celtic Rite. -

NEWSLETTER June 2019 As Summer Arrives, We Look Back on What Has Been Another Wonderful Year of Celebrating
ENNISKILLEN LISBELLAW June 2019 Volume 1, Issue 14 NEWSLETTER As Summer arrives, we look back on what has been another wonderful year of celebrating. We have marked the arrival of new family members in Baptism. We have honoured their maturing and developing as family and community members in First Confession, First Communion and Confirmation. We have rejoiced with those forming new family bonds in the Sacrament of Marriage. We have bidden farewell to those we have lost in death. All of these things mark the cycle of our lives as family and community. As Catholic Christian parishioners, we also regard them as the experience and evidence of God’s grace. In other words, the events of life are more than Rt. Rev. Monsignor Peter O'Reilly, PP, pictured with the just about us; they are about God too. The life Very Rev. Kenneth Hall, Rector of St Macartin’s Cathedral which means so much to us also means so and Dean of the Diocese of Clogher, and Bishop John much to God. So while we might take a McDowell, the local Church of Ireland Bishop, on the holiday from life’s pressures, we never need a occasion of the 40th anniversary of his ordination. holiday from God. Instead, the rest and relaxation of holidays can give us fresh energy to turn to God. For me personally this year is special because it marks forty years of being a priest at the service of the people and places in our diocese to which I’ve been sent. Through it all, I remain convinced that life only makes sense with God.
