    April 18, 2021 Page 1 April 18, 2021 Page 2 Third Sunday of Easter Stewardship Thoughts—April 18, 2021 A Note From The themes linked in today’s Scripture readings encourage us to avoid sin by following the Lord’s directives, to repent, Our Pastor and to seek forgiveness. St. Peter, in the Acts of the Apostles, reminds the people, and us, of the evil of Christ’s THE EASTER SEASON passion and death, and that through repentance and conversion, our sins be wiped away. St. John, in his First The weeks between Easter and Pentecost are above all the Letter, tells us that Jesus is an offering for our sins. In St. seasons of the Church liturgical year, the time of Christian Luke’s Gospel, Jesus appears to His disciples after His joy. The joy of knowing that the Lord is risen to everlasting Resurrection while two of them recount their encounter life, the joy of sharing in His resurrection through baptism with Jesus on the road to Emmaus. They finally recognize and Eucharist, the joy of anticipation of the Heavenly Feast Him in the breaking of the bread. The Church has long of the world to come, the joy of living with our hearts lifted taught that partaking of the Eucharist strengthens us on up with Christ in a world redeemed and reconciled with the our journey as Christ’s disciples. Likewise, participating in Father, and the joy of being called to be ministers in the the Sacrament of Reconciliation for the forgiveness of sins world of the victory of Christ.

  • The Chronological History of the Rotunda Hospital
    HISTORY OF THE HOSPITAL In 1745 Bartholomew Mosse, surgeon and man-midwife, founded the original Dublin Lying-In Hospital as a maternity training hospital, the first of its kind. In 1757 the institution moved to a different location where it became “The New Lying-In Hospital”. This is the hospital complex that is referred to today as simply “The Rotunda”. The Rotunda Hospital is therefore unique as an institution in that it has continued to provide an unbroken record of service to women and babies since its foundation in 1745 and has occupied its present premises since 1757. Should you wish to learn more about The Rotunda Hospital’s history, the book Masters, Midwives, and Ladies- in-Waiting (edited by Alan Browne, a former Master of the Rotunda, published by A&A Farmar, Dublin, 1995) gives a detailed account of developments in the Rotunda over the period 1945-95, which was the fifty-year period of greatest change in the history of obstetrical care. BARTHOLOMEW MOSSE 1712 Bartholomew Mosse was born the fifth child of Rev Thomas Mosse, Rector of Maryborough, now Portlaoise, and his wife Martha. 1728 Mosse, who had been privately educated by a tutor at home, was sent to serve as apprentice to a Barber Surgeon, Mr John Stone, in Dublin. 1733 Mosse was examined and qualified to practice as a surgeon by Mr John Nichols, joint Surgeon-General to the army in Ireland. Mosse obtained glowing testimonials from his master and his examiner. It is probable that he was surgical assistant to these men (themselves surgeons to Mercer’s and Dr Steevens’s Hospitals respectively) within a short time of his qualification.
