    th . World Day of Poor 19 November, 2017 No great economic success story possible as long as homelessness and other poverty crises deepen – Bishop Brendan Leahy Ireland cannot claim itself an economic success while it allows the neglect of its poor, Bishop of Limerick Brendan Leahy has stated in his letter to the people of the diocese to mark the first World Day of the Poor. The letter - read at Masses across the diocese for the official World Day of the Poor called by Pope Francis – says that with homelessness at an unprecedented state of crisis today in Ireland, it is almost unjust and unchristian to claim economic success. “Throughout the centuries we have great examples of outreach to the poor. The most outstanding example is that of Francis of Assisi, followed by many other holy men and women over the centuries. In Ireland we can think of great women such as Catherine McAuley and Nano Nagle. “Today the call to hear the cry of the poor reaches us. In our Diocese we are blessed to have the Limerick Social Services Council that responds in many ways. There are many other initiatives that reach out to the homeless, refugees, people in situations of marginalisation,” he wrote. “But none of us can leave it to be outsourced to others to do. Each of us has to do our part. Today many of us live a privileged life in the material sense compared to generations gone by, Today is Mission Sunday and the Holy Father invites all Catholics to contribute to a special needing pretty much nothing.

  • “Among the Most Catechised but Among the Least Evangelised”? Religious Education in Ireland
    “Among the Most Catechised but among the least Evangelised”? Religious Education in Ireland Br e n d a n Le a h y It has been said that the Irish are the most catechised but among the least evangelised in Europe. This article examines the contemporary situation of religious education in Ireland with a particular focus on its ecumenical aspects. It begins by outlining the historical journey in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries that led Ireland to the current situation. On that basis it considers some of the issues that have arisen in recent times that have seen a dramatic change in religious practice in Ireland. It explores the issue of the relationship of parish, school and family. Keywords: National education; religious instruction; Vatican II; denominational school- ing; Archbishop Martin Since the coming of Patrick to Ireland in the fifth century, the issue of religious education has been important in Ireland. According to a legend, the Celtic princess Eithne asked Patrick: “Who is God, and where is God, of whom is God and where his dwelling?... This God of yours? Is he ever-living? Is he beautiful...? How will he be seen, how is he loved, how is he found?”1 To respond to questions such as this Patrick evangelised, catechised and inculturated the Gospel faith. And in a remarkably short span of time, there was a Celtic Christian body of poetry and literature. In particular it was the monastic communities that drove the Irish Christian experience of religious education and the transmission of the Christ-event in the first millennium.2 Traces of the Biblia pauperum, the religious education carried out in forms other than the written word, are very evident in Ireland.

Following this a draft framework was prepared that outlined areas of concern, relevant resources and experience within the churches, as well as possible actions that might be taken.

  • Speaking Notes of Bishop Brendan Leahy.PDF
    New Directions in the Church Speaking Notes of Bishop Brendan Leahy First Session I would like to thank you for the invitation to speak here today. In conversation with others, we get a chance to reflect further ourselves and that is always valuable. In this first session, the organisers have asked me to address the question: why I took the diocese in a new direction with a Synod and what did it look like? The most immediate reason I moved in the direction of the Synod was that when I became Bishop of Limerick, I quickly realised the Diocese had already engaged in a valuable and widespread listening exercise under the wise guidance of Bishop Donal Murray and had taken many positive steps in developing clusters and pastoral areas. I had to build on that not repeat it. If you don’t go forwards, you backwards! Added to that, with all that the painful difficulties the Church in Ireland has been going through, I felt a collective step was needed. A Synod seemed to fit that bill. I had many other reasons. As a Church activity, a Synod is a time-honoured and well-thought-out organised process that listens to the heart-beat of the Diocese and indicates precise directions that can then become local church law. A Synod is a way of taking up the Gospel’s invitation to work more in unity with one another. And, of course, I was influenced also by the fact that Pope Francis has emphasised the importance of Synods in the Church.

Exclusivism should never be the dominant tone of any Catholic school.” Archbishop Martin said, “Failure to invest in fostering the educational opportunity of the disadvantaged from an early age is economical nonsense, which will end up in requiring greater investment when indeed it may be too late and less effective. Quality education is a fundamental right of all and a requirement of our respect for the dignity of the weakest in society.” Archbishop Martin said he was addressing his remarks in a special Bishop Brendan Leahy, way to the Catholic education community.
