MAYNOOTH, Ireland (ChurchMilitant.com) – The Primate of All Ireland is announcing a meeting of the trustees of scandal-ridden St Patrick’s College in Maynooth, Ireland to discuss its future.
Archbishop Eamon Martin made the announcement Monday on Ireland’s RTE, saying trustees are to meet within the next five weeks to discuss the solution to the current controversy at Ireland’s national seminary, allegedly run by a homosexual network. The announcement came hours after Dublin’s archbishop Diarmuid Martin — who last week pulled his three seminarians from St. Patrick’s — commented that he was surprised a trustees’ meeting had not yet been called to resolve the current crisis.
He and Abp. Eamon Martin have since spoken, and along with Maynooth president Msgr. Hugh Connolly have agreed that a meeting is needed before the academic year.
