A visit to the Redemptorist Church in Limerick
The Redemptorist Church at Mount St. Alphonsus in Limerick. The foundation stone for the church was laid by Bishop Ryan on the 22nd May, 1858. In December, 1862, the church was completed for worship and was dedicated to St. Alphonsus by Bishop Butler. Thomas Hardwick designed the Redemptorist Church. It contains several shrines and altars. The Redemptorists first came to Limerick in 1851 and are known locally in Limerick as The Fathers

REDEMPTORIST MISSIONS PART3
A look at the work of the Redemptorist Order of the Catholic Church. The film emphasises both the negative and positive aspects of the Redemptorists on Irish life. It begins with the annual Clonard Novena in Belfast and traces the history and origins of the Redemptorism in Ireland both North and South. The order was founded by St. Alphonsus Ligouri in Italy in 1732 and only arrived in Ireland from Europe one hundred years later preaching the Four Great Truths of Death, Truth, Heaven and Hell, using powerfully frightening rhetoric to in its campaign against sin and transgression, The film asserts that the Redemptorist Order exerted a powerful hold on Irish people into the 20th Century - becoming a central aspect of Catholic life into the 1960s. The film shows how the order founded confraternities around the island the Limerick Confraternity being one of the largest in Europe. These were run with militaristic precision, and exerted a significant power and influence on church and state a power that the documentary suggests was used for both good and evil over the poor and abandoned of the country. The film goes on to explore the role of the Austrian priest Joseph Prost who wrote about class divisions between the clergy and the laity since the Great Famine and lead the order to operate upon principles of social equality. The Redemptorists encouraged the use of the Irish language in their rural work a factor that lead to disputes within the Catholic hierarchy. Opposing the practice of church collections, they set about on missions which attempted to identify the social needs of ordinary people, setting up credit unions, a factor that lead to the alleged pogroms of Jewish moneylenders in Limerick in 1904. The film explores the divisions between the Redemptorists whose work with the poor lead to their discreet support of Republican movements in the struggle for independence against Britain - and the larger Catholic Church, which believed that the conflict should be addressed through purely democratic means. In the first years of the Free State, the Redemptorists assumed a stance against the drinking and manufacture of alcohol. In 1931, a young Redemptorist from Árainn, Stiofan Ó Conghaile, attempted to end the manufacture of poteen in Connemara. The film goes on to describe the Redemptorists battle against immoral sexuality and the negative influence this on young men in rural communities. The last section of the programme deals with the influence of the Redemptorists on the Northern Irish conflict, and outlines how mainly through the Redemptorist Clonard Monastery in Belfast the order brought itself directly to the concerns of ordinary people once again, this time in ministering to the besieged Catholic Nationalist community who received little or no support from the Catholic Church. This lead to the prominent role of Redemptorist Fr. Alex Reid in bringing together both sides of the Northern Ireland communities for the Northern Ireland Peace Process. The documentary makes extensive use of archive footage.

REDS ON THE ROAD PART 4
The Solemn Novena is an integral part of Catholic Ireland. This video dates back from the 1970s and was produced by the Redemptorists in Limerick. The crowds attending the Novena were huge back then and to some extent they still are. This video shows the Solemn Novena in action. It attempts to give answers for its extraordinary popularity. This is a short clip from the 40 minute documentary.

850 Ireland's Catholic Priests want end to celibacy, allow gay relationships & women ordained
A survey of Irish Catholics by the Association of Catholic Priests (ACP) found 90% would support married priests, 77% want women ordained, and more than 60% disagreed that gay relationships were immoral.
The Vatican criticised the ACP for expressing views which contradict Church teaching.
Pope Benedict warned the Church would not tolerate priests speaking out against Catholic teaching.
The ACP which represents 850 Irish priests held a meeting on 7 May 2012 to discuss the future direction of the Catholic Church.
The ACP meeting comes at a turbulent time for the Church in Ireland.
Its leader, Cardinal Sean Brady, is facing calls to resign over his handling of a clerical sex abuse case.
Change
The ACP meeting, entitled Towards an Assembly of the Irish Catholic Church, will take place at hotel in Dublin.
It has been described as a first effort to bring people together to discuss the current state of Catholic Church in Ireland which has been rocked in recent years by a series of high profile child abuse scandals.
During that period, a number of priests have openly expressed their desire for change in Church rules on matters such as clerical celibacy, the ordination of women and the ban on contraception.
However, in recent months, some of Ireland's most vocal, liberal priests have been disciplined by the Vatican's Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF).
They include leading ACP member, Father Tony Flannery, and the broadcaster and newspaper columnist Fr Brian D'Arcy.
Fr Flannery, who is based in County Galway, was ordered to stop writing articles for a Redemptorist Order magazine to which he had contributed for 14 years.
Fr D'Arcy was told he must get prior approval to write or broadcast on topics dealing with church doctrine.
