Dear Brendan,
For a long time now I have been receiving communications from priests and people of Galway diocese uneasy with how issues are not addressed.
For instance, has the former Redemptorist priest Father Rob McNamara and his housekeeper being involved in a succession of disputes with fellow clergy.
ROB McNAMARA
He began working in Galway diocese apparently in 2009.
In Mervue, did he accuse the parish secretary, Mary O Donnell of being involved in witchcraft?
Did he report the PP of Mervue, Father Willie Cummins to Bishop Drennan?
When he was moved to Renmore did he have a row there with the PP Father Michael Mulkerrins?
CANON MICHAEL MULKERRINS
Did he call the German parish secretary in Renmore a “Nazi”?
When he was moved to Knocknacarra did he accuse the PP there, Father Tadgh Quinn of breaking the Seal of Confession?
FATHER TADGH QUINN
Did he accuse the PP and parish staff in Knocknacarra of installing secret cameras to watch him?
He was moved to Galway University Hospital as chaplain. Did he have a row with the other chaplain Father Peter Joyce, accusing him of assaulting him and resulting in Father Joyce needing counselling?
FATHER PETER JOYCE
Did he have problems with the new chaplain Father Daithi O’Murchu and did Father Daithi refer matters to the Gardaí?
Eventually was Rob himself and Daithi removed from the hospital?
Did father Daithi involve the Association of Catholic Priests, canon and civil lawyers in the dispute
Is Father Daithi now ministering in the UK where he not happy?
Have you now appointed Father Rob as a curate in your cathedral?
Does Father Rob say he WAS gay but was cured at Medjugorje?
Brendan, quite simply, what is going on and what are you doing about all this?
Yours,
Pat Buckley
