Sr Helen Mary Freer OSsR... Solemn Profession...
"On Saturday 1st August 2026 we had the tremendous joy of celebrating Sr. Helen Mary Freer's Solemn Profession.
The Profession Mass was celebrated by Bishop Paul Dempsey, Auxiliary Bishop of the Archdiocese of Dublin.
Our community had the pleasure of being joined by our brother Redemptorists. Fr. Dan Bargary CSsR, delivered a beautiful homily and Fr. Ryan Holovlasky CSsR made sure the ceremony was both dignified and smooth.
Sr. Helen was also joined by faithful friends who have supported her with great love and generosity along her journey.
Some members of the local community who worship with us regularly, our own chaplain Fr. Pat O'Donoghue and some of his most able choir and music group brought the joy of themselves and their talents to enhance the celebration.
We are deeply grateful to them all and to God above all for the gift of our newly Solemnly Professed Sister." A report from the OSsR Nuns website.

St Alphonsus: A Leader after the heart of Jesus the Eternal Shepherd...
St Alphonsus: A Leader after the heart of Jesus the Eternal Shepherd...
Each day of the triduum will focus on two essential qualities of servant leadership. Together, these qualities present a vision of leadership that is needed not only within our Congregation but also in the Church, our families, our communities, and society.
A leader formed in the spirit of Jesus is one who remains constantly centred on Christ;
one who guides with wisdom,
cares with compassion,
encourages with hope,
reconciles with mercy,
lives with humility and selflessness,
and above all
seeks to become a shepherd after the heart of Jesus, the Eternal Shepherd.

As we reflect on these virtues, we will also see how they were embodied in the life and ministry of St Alphonsus. His unwavering commitment to the Gospel, his pastoral charity, his concern for the most abandoned, and his fidelity to God’s will continue to inspire Redemptorists and all who share in our mission today.

Day 2: St Alphonsus as a leader who encouraged and reconciled
On the second day of the triduum, we reflect on Jesus as the one who encourages the broken and reconciles those divided, and on how St Alphonsus lived these same qualities in his leadership. He strengthened discouraged confreres, affirmed their gifts, and gently helped them rediscover their vocation and mission. At the same time, he worked to heal divisions, restore trust, and build unity through patience, dialogue, and charity, never avoiding conflict but addressing it with truth and compassion. His life shows that true servant leadership both lifts others up and becomes an instrument of reconciliation and communion in Christ.

Day 1 of the Triduum in honour of St Alphonsus Maria de'Liguori...
On this first day of the triduum, Fr. Ivel CSsR reflects on the servant leadership of Jesus, who guided and cared for his disciples, and on how these same qualities were lived by St Alphonsus.
Through his wisdom, compassion, and dedication to the poor and to his confreres, Alphonsus led others with humility, strengthened them in their vocation, and kept the Congregation focused on Christ and its mission.
May his example inspire us to guide and care for others with the heart of the Good Shepherd.

Confreres under the age of 50 years gathered in St Mary's Monastery Kinnoull, Perth, Scotland to share, discuss, pray and recreate together as we move to become a larger province in the coming years.
The Provincial Superior of Canada, Fr Santo Arrigo CSsR., was invited to come along and speak about the experience of the Redemptorists in Canada. There they had the issues of language, Provinces and Rites to join together as one Unit; the Province of St Anne de Beaupré (French speaking). the Byzantine Ukrainian Catholic of Canada Province and the Edmunton-Toronto Province (English speaking). A mighty task and as Fr Santo stated,
"In the end, it was an experience of unity in the Spirit, reminding us that we are no longer separate units, but one, and that this unity is for mission, and that we all have something to contribute towards the future mission of the Province of Canada." Fr. Santo Arrigo C.Ss.R., Provincial Superior, Province of Canada
All in all it was a great experience of being confreres
united together in mission and community!
