How 'The Most Catholic Country in the World' Left the Church but is Rediscovering Faith
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 мар 2023
- DUBLIN - If there were a symbol of what happened to faith in Ireland, it might be The Church of the Annunciation just outside of Dublin. It used to be one of the largest church buildings in all of Ireland, but it was demolished because so few people attended services.
Ireland was once called "the most Catholic country in the world." But it has gone from one of the world's most outwardly religious nations to what some claim is one of the most secular.
Anyone in Ireland over age 50 can remember a nation where almost everyone went to church, but today live in a nation where in some areas, almost no one goes to church.

I was broughtup as a catholic and dragged to church every single sunday and holy novena as a child in the 80's and early 90's here in Ireland by my parents. I did not enjoy a second of it and once I left home I completely abandoned God. Since the pandemic my faith has risen exponentially to a point I refuse to miss mass for any reason and I have been forgiven all of my sins and i walk with Our lord and strive not to sin again! And I thank my parents every time I see them for bringing me up in the faith whereby My own relationship with my Father has been healed exponentially through our faith in Christ.
That’s great to hear! God bless you and your loved ones 🙏❤️
When you get a chance...try reading the Holy Scriptures as this is God's love letter to us...His children. ☘️🙏🕎🙏☘️
God bless you

I'm a RC in my 50s, very few people I know go to Mass. But the Filipinos and Indians go. The African priests are remarkable. The Irish priests are a embracing modern ideology and are silent.

Yes, this is a clear example we see in many ex heavily catholic nations, the catholic church certainly had many true and devout Christians, however, the church became more of an institution a government and a culture for national identity rather than something spiritual as it ought to be, this ultimately led to its decline you can see many catholic nations going this way However this is an opportunity for Churches that will not make these mistakes to rise up in these last days. A church has to be built on God otherwise it will be built on changing man-made affairs like quicksand it will fall.
I'm 61 years old and have been hearing about the imminent "demise of the Catholic Church" all my life. Somehow the Church manages to survive and prevail come hell or highwater.
Well, just try to give as much as you can when the collection plate is near you. The child abuse attorneys in this country are very expensive.
@@nelsonvecchione2621 🤣
Yes but this time they are running out of priests. No priest = no church.
@@ed7002 Wrong. No Holy Spirit = No Church.
@@warrenpaine Major flaw in your calculations. No Priest = No Baptism which then = No New Members of Church which then = Old Members Die off which then = No Church. Simple natural progression.
The Christian Brothers from Ireland and the catholic faith has so much relevance in my life and helped me be successful today. I learnt a lot of my morals and understanding from them.Without Catholicism,you'll be just another country with loose morals and there won't be turning back . All the best Ireland, love from India .
Read the miracle of Scotland's Protestant redemption, John Knox 16th century. From Druids to the country with the most patents per person in the world, Look around and when you see "presbyterian" Free Hospitals, Schools because when the fear of death is gone, people are free to do the right thing. Now , back to paganism
Praise our Apostolic church,Hallelujah 🙏
No, praise Jesus Christ

@@worm_and_no_man we Catholics as well as all Christianity know Jesus because of the Catholic Church. It is very easy for someone in the 21st century to deny the Church. However, it was the Catholic Church that presented Jesus to us against all odds and persecution since the very beginning. Keep up to history.
Sadly, a lot of these churches closed during lockdown in Ireland. My husband and I had to leave to travel north to find one that stayed open. A few faithful churches kept meeting down south. I believe that is truly the litmus test for a faithful church. Find one that preaches the Gospel at all costs!

Churches are nice as monumental buildings. Whatever is preached inside is hogwash.
@@christiangirl2222 Yes salvation is found only in the Lord Jesus Christ and not in any denomination or fellowship or organization but in the person of the Lord Jesus Christ.

I am disgusted and ashamed of my country for legalizing those abominations. Please God save Ireland. ❤👑♰🕊
Jesus commanded his followers to separate church and state (i.e. secular government) for a reason, actually multiple reasons, but part of that has to do with Free Will which is explained succinctly in the parable of the Prodigal Son: God wants each of us to find our way to him, via our own experience, via our own volition. Love cannot manifest in the absence of free will. If you want to conflate religion and politics, and eliminate free will, you are in the wrong religion, if you want to conflate religion and politics and eliminate free will you need to become a Muslim, because that is the very definition of Islam.
A premise of Christianity is: that death is not the final experience.
The essence of Christianity is: God created us with enough free will to not choose him. One of the first things we did was not choose him. Because of that we are broken, and our relationship with God is broken, and because death is not the final experience, we are bedamned. But God created us, in his own image, so God loves us. Because he loves us, God doesn't want us to be bedamned. So God, as Jesus comes into the world to teach us and to suffer and die, and because death isn't the final experience, resurrected, and thereby provide us a way, a path back to God WITHOUT US LOSING OUR FREEDOM, OUR FREE WILL.
There was another way for God to save us: take away our free will.
If God had taken away our free will then we'd never not choose him, never be broken and never bedamned and Jesus would not have had to come and live, suffer and die for us.
But Jesus thought our salvation in the context of our free will was so important that he rather die, surrender his life, than take away our free will.
So what would Jesus do in regard to the CIVIC issue of pro-life versus pro-choice? He'd do what he did. What did he do? He chose our free will over life itself (because death is not the final experience), Choice over Life, not just any life either, but his most precious life. Just something to think about, instead of the political garbage some one blasts you with.
Just care your business.nobody forces you to be gay
@@kaneinkansas He commanded Peter to build a NEW church. Jesus did not come to do away with religion. Your argument is not sound as it implies that God puts free will over all else. In particular our own. Jesus did not come to do away with the law of Moses but to fulfill the law of Moses. This is why we must follow the 10 Commandments and Gods word.. God showed His love for even unborn babies by penalizing those whose carelessness led to these babies’ being miscarried. Reasoning a fortiori we could say: how much more so should there be a penalty when the miscarriage was intended, when the miscarriage was truly an abortion!To say that Christ would be ok with abortion is an abomination.
Your God doesn't exist.
Are you ashamed of the church's abuse of children or do you not care for people once they are born?
That new church is not a church. It's a hall with a concert.
Conflating spirituality with emotionalism.
keep away from it, start a house church which is founded on the Living Word of God not the jesuits
Ear tickling.
Who's to say the Gospel can't be preached because of the style of the building and music? God can use whatever means possible to bring about revival. This spiritual awakening deserves our joy and prayers, not our criticism.
Feel good churches. These people are simply being swept by novelties in worship which place a heavy stress on feelings and emotional euphoria. Which is why one never encounters a Crucifix in these establishments. The Irish will play dearly for abandoning Christ's holy Church.
Praying for the salvation of the Irish people
Thank you, God bless

We don't need salvation and certainly don't need prayers. What we want and are getting, is rid of the useless delusion of religious beliefs. It's called maturity.
@@skateboardingjesus4006That will extremely hard to do. Even if Christianity declines, another religion will replace it. We humans by nature are religious but our own ways.
@@fernandocuriel124 Yep, when Christendom turns on itself, Islam pushes at the weakened gates of Christian society.
The island of Malta is in a similar situation. 95% of the people declared that they are Roman Catholics but only about 35% declared that they attend church.
I pray for Ireland. Do something and let the Christian faith flourish back. It's never too late. All the best from the Philippines.
Let the real and saved Christian faithfuls in Ireland hold fast to what they have with them.
Amen
To the church in Revelations: "Strengthen what remains ... "
Saw a vision in Dublin while I was there..A Catholic priest in full robes, was in a great sweat, preaching and praying and laboring for Ireland, that the nation would not sink.. in its sins.
I knew immediately this was the ' church sweat' (spiritual labours), as apposed to the ( ' civil sweat'), or the family ( fathers sweat') labour. The heaviest 'Sweat' or burden is the church burden.

I am a English Catholic our churches on Sunday's are packed to almost overflowing and on Saturday's Lots of young and families it's so wonderful to see. I am also second generation Irish, and now it's the eastern Europeans turn. Now we need more Priests 🙏❤
When families center on God they stay together, for man and wife love each other and they love and encourage the development of children of character and service and they, as a family, become a beacon of faith, even without realizing it, and of the presence of God in the world. May the land of Saint Patrick once more sing to the glory and God and His mercy to those who trust in Him. +So Be It+ 🙂
At one time Irish Catholics murdered Protestants. That is typical of the Roman Catholic church.

Our ancestors literally fought and died to hold onto our Catholicism for hundreds of years despite so many attempts to outlaw it and take it from us. It’s an insult to them that we abandon it.
Ultimately denomination doesnt matter though..its about Christianity not Catholicism or Protestantism etc
@@vanpallandt5799 I don’t think you have a clue about the history of Ireland and why specifically Catholicism is something that is so important to us.
There’s a reason we never became Protestant when they were destroying us for hundreds of years in an attempt to convert us.
Your argument is very flawed if we insult out ancestors by abandoning Catholicism, they insulted theirs by abandoning paganism.
@@ed7002Paganism is just made up stuff from thousands though, can’t compare it to the foundations of nearly every institution in our society today that is also built around a man who is real, as opposed to made up entities.

Sad that the Irish lost their Catholic faith, but I can't blame 'em. The separation of church and state wasn't as pronounced and horrid clergy grew complacent and un-Christian. Hopefully now the Catholic church will grow again, without the vise grip it once had.
Regan Donohue• God have a purpose why God let it so happened the lost of Catholic church or faith. If people know Catholic ,said first religion ,the second is their book or bible? God want to save them, seeking the truth. What's the truth,? Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. That's the word of God not mine. Read the Bible. God said, in Levitucus 26:1- Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up any image of stone in you land, to bow unto it: for I am the LORD your." Isaiah 42:8- I am the Lord: that is my name: and ny glory will not give to another, neither my praise to graven images." Means don't worship any mary statue ,saints statue graven image. Don't venerate all statue that's is idolatry. Jesus is a living God. He's not made of stone or hand made.. Jesus did not teach to worship Mary statue or any image. Not stated in holy Scripture. Believe or not you can't change it the word of God. Remember the 10 commandments of God. The earth will pass away but God's words never pass away.
@@len4319 Please be aware that Catholics only worship statues that are made of marble from Italy and not Chinese knockoffs..... I'm glad to see you enjoy reading the book produced by the Catholic church in the 4th century.
@jcbel8769 Why were there images of 2 Cherubs in the tabernacle in the holy of holies as commanded by God?
UK had Protestant Anglican faith just as backward as Ireland at one time and Norhern Ireland had Presbyterians
I read in Los Angeles times that evangelical preachers from Romania are attracting large crowds in Ireland. I guess Catholics don’t really like the Holy Eucharist. They are junking it just like Protestants have instructed them to do
Iniquity shall abound the love of many will wax cold but he that endures to the end shall be saved

We need a Catholic Pope & Hierarchy with valid Holy Orders to burn the Vatican 2 documents in Saint Peter's square at dawn,and offer a pre-1951 Holy Sacrifice of the Mass afterwards. Annul all Pius XII Liturgical mutilations (1951-1958) and mandatory enforce after midnight Holy Communion fast. As goes the Church so goes the World. No Pope since 1956 search "Sede-vacantist chapels."
It’s punishment for all the wicked deeds of the Catholic Church. No wonder no one wants to go.
@@StarLight-sl9ok Novus Ordo anti-Church is not the Holy Catholic Church. Remember,King Saul and Caiphus were once Kings & High Priests of the one true Faith' first phase,the Israelites.

Very heartening report!
As an Irish-American Catholic, I've been dismayed to see the collapse of the Christian faith in Ireland.
St. Patrick, an English missionary to Ireland, was formerly a captive of the wild, pagan outlier.
He performed a miracle of conversion through the grace of God.
May He bless and strengthen these new missionaries in their ministry!
Saint Patrick was Welsh. I know not everyone knows about us but we do exist.p.s. the Welsh speaking part of Britain ( the majority) was the first Christian country in the world. I'm still trying to figure out this pagan aspect whether it's true or just made up by the English.
@@leestirling4623 Armenia was the first Christian country in the world.
St Patrick was a Roman citizen who was possibly born in Wales or western Scotland. He certainly wasn’t English. The Anglo Saxons (aka the English) didn’t arrive in Britain until 450 AD, by which time Patrick was already an old man living in Ireland.
He wrote that his father was Calpornius and that his grandfather was Potitus and that he lived at Bannavem Taburniae. Scholars aren’t sure of the exact location of Bannavem Taburniae.
I have never, ever heard of St Patrick being described as an “English missionary”. That’s a blatant example of saint appropriation, which is one of the worst kinds of appropriation ever recorded in the BLNADGPW+++ !
[BLNADGPW++ : _Big List of Nasty Appropriations for Disgruntled Grumpy Persons Worldwide and their families, friends and pets_ ]
🤣😂🤣😂
St Patrick was not "English". There was no "England" at the time of Patrick's birth. Patrick was a Romanized CELT born in what is now referred to as Wales.
@@warrenpaine Well shut ma mouth!
Here in Canada, catholic churces survive because of filipino immigrants.
Filipinos are prayerful people!
God bless the places, wherever they are.
God bless the Spanish for gifting Catholicism to the Filipinos
In my city, Catholic churches that had 10 people attending in 1990 are so packed now that there isn't even standing room. This is because of the Filipino influx.
The Irish did so much to keep the Faith alive in Ireland, in Europe and across the world. They largely built the Catholic Church in the United States. It would be ironic if this generation allowed that heritage of faith to be extinguished in their own country.
Oh praise You, Jesus! This is wonderful news! Who would have thought that Romanian and African churches would bring Revival to Ireland. It's beautiful. The new St. Patricks. 🙏🏻🙌🏻✝️
You realize how corrupt the catholic church is? Are you even aware Adam and Eve never existed? Nullifying Christianity? You just blindly support child CSA?
The missionaries sowed the seed of faith, & those children grew in faith & thank God had returned to save Ireland from the woke agenda & the immoral teachings in primary schools of lgbt ideology & the sickening graphic sexualization..
The Saints of Ireland are coming to rescue us from the abandonment to the god of secularism & freedom of choice which has risen to take over every institution, with detrimental affects.
Those who speak the truth of the Gospel are ridiculed & mocked, these trials are sent to test us like gold in the furnace.
The flames of hell await the wicked generation who reject God & His Laws & Commandments.
The church leaders are too afraid to offend parishioners who trust their guidance, yet they hear words that please their ears instead of the truth that sets us free.
So hopeful this revival is spreading & will strengthen God's people to fight the enemy's plans to destroy our nation..
Rubbish. The EU and its secularist agenda has bribed Ireland. Ireland is for the Irish! Not these intruders.

the good thing is that tens of thousands of strong born again christians will be received into the Catholic church this Easter here in the USA . Have been watching tons of video testimonies of former staunch anti Catholic Evangelical Bible Scholars,Historians ,Theologians ,Pastors ,to name a few,who have converted already to the Catholic church here in the USA .Many more are following their footsteps . The other good thing too , is that there are many Millennials ,whom some of them are Pastors /Preacher kids . Actually ,this is occurring in Latin American countries ,as well . The future of the Catholic church here in the USA and Latin American countries is good .... I was in London, Scotland in Jan 2023 ,the churches were packed . I went to Dublin and visited St Patrick Cathedral .There were many tourists visiting .However,when I went to a city few hours from Dublin ,I just saw a few people praying on a weekday .Visited Knock shrine ,there were tourists as well ,but not many .
yes Richard would certainly along with many other who paid the price for not denying rtheir Lord and Saviour, francis should be given a copy of Richard,s suffering along with his precious wife, Well done good and faithful servant
A lot of the decline stems from the behavior of the Christian Brothers
Then they are not looking at Christ to begin with.
My Great Aunt took in a victim of the Church in the 50's or 60's to a spare room in her home. The local priest dared to come to her and tell it was immoral to take him into her home. That priest didn't dare come back. No one told her what to do in her home. I have great respect for someone who when Church was virtually all powerful in Ireland sent them packing.
She was a strong woman of conviction, God bless her!
I am Romanian, and I have a few family members who live in Ireland and attend The Bethany Church. I am so glad that CBN has reported on this!
I grew up Protestant, lost faith, and returned to Christianity as Catholic after years of study of the Church Fathers, Doctors, and more modern apologists as Chesterton, Sheen, Barron, Sarah, Ratzinger, Hahn and Horn. I’m glad Ireland is rediscovering faith, and I pray all return to the Mother Church.

How crazy to think that many Catholics convert to Protestantism, while more protestant intelligent preachers convert to Catholicism. Why leave the catholic faith? Watch the video of Scott Hahn.
This is encouraging
Here's the thing, if people have left God, then there should be no longer and Sunday days off, no Christmas celebration and other Christian holidays. Seems like a fair trade.
Then we can get churches to pay tax.

So sad about the Church in Ireland . I continue to pray for a brilliant Irish priest who ended up in Texas & converted me to Christianity in 1961. In memory of him, I also pray for Ireland.
God knows their heart and minds.
This is my country. I just pray that the Holy Spirit will convict people of their sins and that they will dedicate their lives to Christ in Jesus name 🙏
If the church hierarchy (especially the Roman Catholic) had not harbored, protected, defended their perpetrators against their victims would there have been such a falling away? Is the desolation a consequence of corruption?
Pray for Ireland 🙏🇮🇪
In Canada, the province of Quebec was French, and Catholic ( different than the British Protestantism that was in the West, and Ontario) and during their Quiet Revolution in the 1950's..Catholicism and conservatism were thrown right out the door. There were still hold outs, mostly the old, and devoted. Now go to Montreal....secular , and Marxist.
Glory to God! Let the people find their true faith in Jesus Christ alone, not in religion. May it also happen in the Philippines. 🙏
Well Jesus, Christ himself established the Catholic "religion" - so your sentence is a bit contradictory. To fully follow Christ is to do so in HIS religion.
Very True! There is no hope in the pope!!
I come from the Philippines as well, and I can tell you that many of these Protestants or born again people don’t even know what “religion” means. Then again, it’s the same in many other countries. I assume they meant organized structure. I guess they prefer a disorganized structure, one with countless denominations having teachings contradictory to each other.
@@freda7961 Yes, you are right, all churches have organized structure, so protestants are lying to themselves when they claim they have none.
@2Uahoj Wrong. Emperor Constantine started the Catholic Church in 313 AD, long after Christ's death and long after Peter who by the way was never a Pope like the Catholics claim. And since he was a recent convert when he legalized Christianity in Rome and started building the church, he didn't understand Christianity very well, and so he took advice from Pagan priests when starting the church, and so many of the practices the Catholic church adopted were originally pagan practices, like lighting of the candles. And these pagan traditions have carried on to this day. The Catholic church is very likely the harlot that the Book of Revelation talks about who spreads her adulteries to all the nations.
I pray Ireland finds to God and embraces him once again 🙏 As an Orthodox Christian I support my Catholic Brothers and Sisters in Christ and I pray your country finds to Orthodoxy or at least Catholicism again ✝️☦️
Eventually we’ll reunite and then the unification of theThe Church will arise as it was before and the Protestants will cease their ecclesiastical groupings and finally join the Church.
It's a wonderful life when you belueve in Jesus
That's Awesome.. thanks missionaries
Romania 🇷🇴
Wow. Poingant. The Bibles the Irish sent to Romania is coming back.
I pray they will continue to seek Jesus. I’m sorry to tell you guys. Catholicism is not Christian. They claim to be Christian. They always tell me they are the same. They are not. They believe Jesus died but they worship Mary.
I believe in respect for Mary because she was his mother but we are to worship Jesus. He is the only way. Your relationship and salvation is between you and the Lord. Not a priest. When they say “forgive me father for I have sinned” when they are talking to a priest it’s wrong they cannot forgive you. They have no control over your salvation. There is so much more. Please seek Jesus. He is the light, truth, life, and the only way.
Little knowledge s dangerous.... Learn more about Catholic Church... then speak
Amen & amen
@shelleyyounger6616
Amen & amen
The young Catholics in Ireland will bring her back, it will turn back to tradition and to the faith of its fathers. Praise be Jesus Christ, now and forever! Saint Patrick, pray for us!
Jesus prays for his disciples in Ireland. Patrick came from Wales to preach the Gospel in Ireland, not Papal idolatry.
This is misleading. The largest immigrant group is Poles who are unabashedly orthodox Roman Catholics. They have saved many of the old Irish parishes from nonexistence. Also parishes are part of the local community, not centralized as are Mega churches.
You don't save souls by encouraging a people to abandon their Christian heritage, the faith of their fathers, by going into their country to compete for members. You encourage it's restoration.
Besides, protestantism introduces divorce and remarriage everywhere it goes. Also birth control.
It started with Luther + Henry VIII in western Europe which now has the most rapidly declining birthrate in Europe and were the first to implement woke policies.
You are preying on people on a people historically invaded and infiltrated by outsiders.
WOW 😳 the Lord gave me a dream about Ireland Revival 3/19/23 then this popped up on my feed 3/20/23! Hallelujah 😍
Revival worldwide. RUclips Apostle Kathryn Krick.
What is your dream? Please tell
@Eucharist Angel Rejected by who?
Definitely, when the Irish decide to return to Christ they will return to the Catholic Church. In the next five years a million young Irish people will wake up, reject Atheistic Consumerism, reject emotional Christian worship, and seek God in the quiet reverence and holiness of the Catholic Mass.
The True Mass is the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM) 🙏
Fantastic!!
Amen, God bless Ireland and may the Holy Spirit move in a mighty way there to be a testimony to the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY'S LOVE GRACE AND MERCY!!!! 🙏❤️
We went to mass at the annunciation many times with my late mother and father in law to be fair it was very cold and the roof was failing and congregation size not what is was but good priests there included in greater finglas parish
Pray for England. They say more people attend mosques every week in England than attend the Church of England. Very sad.
True, some of the Catholic parishes are fuller especially in the cities but not many English attend, the immigrants are keeping them afloat, some rural parishes are being closed. However some of Traditional Latin Masses are doing slightly better with the English.
Beautiful 😢 Amen praise The Lord!!!
GOD IS GOOD! We are to worship Him, not the church he created! Truth in love, Christ fam
Not the church WE created!
God murders babies. God isn't good. He isn't even real...
Whoever said that the Church should be worshiped? No one. But indeed, Christ established the Church and instituted the Sacraments. It baffles me why most Protestants are so against the idea of the “Church” to the extent of pitting her against Christ in almost every turn they can.
Do they not know that Christ is united to believers, but not merely in an individualistic way? Christ has one bride. All believers are therefore saved together as part of this one body, the bride of Christ. The Church is saved by being united to Christ. Believers are not saved apart from one another, but through being united to the “whole Christ,” namely, his body, the Church. It is covenantal. It is marital. It is familial. It is communal.
@@freda7961 The church is the body of christ described by Paul in the New Testament, it's not the Catholic church. The Catholic church was founded by Emperor Constantine of Rome in 313 AD, long after Christ and Peter, so Peter never could have been the first Pope like the Catholics claim. When Constantine founded it he was only a recent convert to Christianity, and so was not very knowledgeable about Christian values as a whole, so when he founded it he took advice from Pagan priests and influencers. This is why many of the traditions the Catholic church has such as lighting the candles, are of Pagan origins and it's why most protestants are not following them. Protestants are not against the church, or at least the Catholics made up definition of "Church" the protestants understand that the Church is the body of believers in Christ.
You can make all the Pentacostal churches you want, and they will still not be the Church that Christ founded - the Catholic Church. So, while the current protestant movement is undoubtedly sincere, it is not the fulness of what the Lord desires for the Irish people or any if us.
Matthew 24:10-13 ESV
And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.
They left the churches, BUT THE FAITH OF THE PEOPLE ARE STILL THERE!!!
GOD BLESS US
Thanks
Orthodoxy is growing everywhere! Glory be to God!
There are still devoted believers left
As much as I dislike church i believe that that church buildings themselves should not be destroyed just remade in to something new.
So beautiful.❤
When Ireland joined the EU, there was a lot pressure put on them to get with the times, so to speak. But, Dale Hurd needs to get out of Dublin. Dublin is a cosmopolitan big city, but Ireland is still VERY Catholic. It runs DEEP in the veins. Evangelicals are a small, small part of the population. There are still a smattering of Methodists, Baptists, and others even LDS. Mr. Hurd's report was good, but very incomplete. He need to take a trip to Knock Shrine, Croagh Patrick, and Galway.
I agree, Dublin is not representative of Ireland as a whole. Faith is still strong in many places, and in many Catholic churches there are still sizeable congregations. I believe that the Holy Spirit will renew the Church, perhaps from a surprising direction.
Ireland needs God again. Lord, please revive Ireland! ✝️🇮🇪
Amen 🇮🇪✝️
Thanks for mentioning RCCG
I’m sorry I made the mistake of watching a CBN video about Ireland. I thought this was a different channel.
As an orthodox romanian, I am disipointed and I'm ashamed of these heretic countrymen confusing the people of Ireland
People of Ireland must pray. Catatrophe is brewing.
Im interested to know about the Filipino catholics who’ve migrated to and have settled in Ireland. Are they keeping their parishes alive? Thanks
Ireland’s soil is soaked in the blood of martyrs. This is the lifeblood of the church. I believe in Ireland🙏
What is happening in Ireland is happening all over the world. Now that Ireland is a prosperous nation, it has become secular. It is, however, unfortunate that these churches are being demolished because they are, if nothing else, part of Ireland's culture. So by becoming more secular, the Irish are destroying part of their own culture.
The real core of the Gospel includes this: "unless you eat My Flesh and Drink my Blood, you will NOT have life within you."
Any faith community WITHOUT the true Eucharist is lifeless.
We all need the true Catholic Church, which is actually not necessarily the "Roman Catholic Church". Their are actually 23 rites in the Catholic Church, 22 of which are well-preserved, accurate expressions of the so-called "early church" as it was brought to different parts of the known world at the time. The early church still exists! (This Also includes the Orthodox East) sadly, it is this modern day "Novus Ordo" version of the Roman rite that everyone has come to be familiar with that has strayed from the early Catholic church the most.
I long for the return of the Catholic Church in Ireland and in my own country the USA! God be with us.
God bless for the info. In the USA i knew nothing about problems in Ireland.
Latin Mass growing also
When Catholicism declined it wasn't the church that they abandoned, they abandoned Our Lord Jesus they never realize that Jesus is always present in the Holy Eucharist which can only found thru the Catholic church. Protestantism nor Evangelism cannot replace that sacredness 😢 and the true church of Christ.
Totally Agree.
But attend the TLM only see " QUO PRIMUM " Apostolic Constitution of POPE SAINT PIUS FIFTH and Council of Trent Session 7 Canon 13 and Session 22. Available online. 🌴🙏
Pray Fatima Rosary daily (Joyful, Sorrowful, Glorious mysteries) 🙏🌴
It's so good.
Did the citizens of Ireland vote for gay marriage. Because the citizens in England never got the vote. The government passed it .
Now this is wonderful news! My ancestors came from Ireland and I am glad to see this happening, thank You Jesus!
Mine on my Mothers side also.
Praying that the Catholic remains in Ireland, growing with the faithful.
Praying that the papacy is eradicated.
Patrick was of the Celtic church.
Catholicism is an usurper
@@geordiewishart1683 Patrick was Welsh!
@@paulapioan29 the Welsh are Celts!
Ireland's misguided counter-Christian "influencers" have done terrible harm to the Irish people, all in the name of bringing progress to the country. But God allows this because it separates the committed Christians from the virtue signallers.
May St Patrick & St Kevin intercede for Ireland & Bless Ireland Amen!
Congratulations. You have changed for the Eternal reward. The world of believers will pray for you
God bless you guys, let faith arise...☺️🙏
Far more people attend weekly mass in Ireland than attend weekly religious services in the US. Some areas nothing much changed at all. An even bigger issue is smaller families in Ireland, so no extra sons to go into the clergy.
Amen 😢 I pray and agree 🙏
