A HOLY MAN: We had a huge funeral last Wednesday/Thursday. Tony had to be in the church overnight (Oliver Plunkett’s) for his last vigil. He was a Holy man; a…
Stan Mellett, a Redemptorist with over 60 years priestly experience, gives his thoughts on the future of ministry.
“… the point of departure is the sacrament of baptism. Everyone is priest, prophet and king; each one with different roles and gifts serves the whole People of God. Like Jesus who came not to be served but to serve and give His life for many.
The ordained minister for today and tomorrow will need to have a mind set and attitudes whereby he/she is like the rest of men and women – not a person apart! Deeply prayerful with ‘the bible in one hand and the daily paper in the other’ at the service of all life and all creation!”
Remarks Pope Francis intended to speak to priests in Rome were read to them in his absence due to a “slight indisposition”.

Zoom is a stilted medium, but it worked like magic yesterday. I was only able to sit in on the first hour of the meeting, but I found the four presentations fascinating and edifying. Then I sat in on a discussion of Irish mysticism in St Petersburg (the Irish participants were Dermot Keogh, Damian Bracken, and Peter McDonagh). The Russians enthused about Irish mystical sites such as Newgrange, Glendalough, Gougane Barra, and Yeats’s Tower.
Well done team. You carried off the AGM with aplomb. Gerry – you handled everything and coordinated all the disparate parts expertly. Thank you. It was quite some achievement. The Summary of events/involvement and work of the Leadership team, was impressive. But the work itself was clearly so demanding and so essential. Liamy’s administrative role, seems to be expanding at a rapid rate and matters deeply. Appreciation and praise was given to the Liturgy resources people and so deserved. (Pat Rogers contribution was rightly highlighted). The work too of Mattie and now Liamy as Moderators of the site, is a great gift. The site is really the public and constant face of the ACP. You are all a blessing for us.
