Looking back on 2018 and Repeal the Eight

So we leave 2018 behind us, and look forward to the new year, with both hope and trepidation. 

One of the big events of the past year was, of course, of referendum to repeal the 8th. As I recorded earlier in this blog, I voted Yes, but did so with a fair bit of uncertainty, knowing that whichever way the result came out, I wouldn’t see it as a cause for celebration.

Not Suspended, but Withdrawn

Having made enquirers as to, if I am suspended from ministry, why I haven’t got an official document stating this, I have got the following reply from my Superior.

I am not suspended;  I am withdrawn from ministry. The action is taken by the Redemptorists, under instruction from the CDF. And the position remains unchanged.They are still looking for the same statement as they were six years ago.  And in the meantime the Church has dramatically changed.
