Synod: Final Document Published
October 27 2024
Sean Connell
I’m just a lay person who was very excited when this process began and have followed it closely. I was very disappointed at the attitude of the clergy from the beginning particularly towards the Holy Spirit and called in many ways for the laity to be asked to invoke him into their lives and ask for his help and guidance. Even though all the clergy I spoke to agreed, nothing was done. I watch Mass each day on RTÉ and attend Mass every week and can say that the I have only heard the word synod mentioned twice or three times. Having read the document I am again disappointed at negative statements above which pick holes in it instead of trying to implement it. We have been given directions on how to proceed and if we believe in the Holy Spirit and ask the faithful to bring him into their lives he will not let us down... As regards the ordination of women, if we follow the process it will inevitably happen, I can see in the document huge progress in the role of women in the church and we need to build on this and not “ throw out the baby with the bath water".

Statement on the General Election 2024 – Archbishop Dermot Farrell

DON
Indeed a very important document. However, the opportunity was missed to highlight the Church's great concern for the protection of the lives of all, including the unborn and the elderly.

Brendan Hoban: We haven’t lost our faith in funeral rituals Western People 12.11.2024
November 17 2024
Joe O'Leary
It seems that funerals remain a great social event in Ireland, and that they also touch the participants spiritually. If the church could give the same drawing power to the Mass what a magnificent revival that would be! But the monopoly of liturgical space by the Mass, celebrated with routine blindness, has been the kiss of death. Funerals, by definition, have a social context. The opposite is true of the Mass as it has become. Now that congregations are smaller, why not organize coffee hours after Mass? It could make the congregation a community. Or is that too 'Protestant'?
