There is a report circulating among clergy claiming that the bishop of Kilmore, Martin Hayes is “missing”.
The report is also claiming the the retired bishop has been brought back as “administrator”.
These reports are circulating in Ireland and Rome.
Martin Hayes (59) was ordained as bishop a 16 months ago on 20.9.20.
Last night a Kilmore priest said Hayes was just on a holiday?
I have never heard of a bishop appointing an “administrator” while he was holidays.
What’s going on in Kilmore???
TUAM INSTALLATION ON SUNDAY NEXT AT 2.30 PM
The new archbishop of Tuam, Francis Duffy will be installed on Sunday coming.
IRISH BISHOP’S STATEMENT
Most Reverend Francis Duffy will be installed as Archbishop of Tuam in the Cathedral of the Assumption, Tuam, on Sunday next, 9 January 2022, during the celebration of Mass at 2.30pm. He succeeds Archbishop Michael Neary who was appointed Archbishop of Tuam on 17 January 1995.
While it was hoped to celebrate the Installation with as many people as possible in attendance, and at the same time respecting the public health advice and the current official guidelines, this is now not possible due to the widespread circulation of the coronavirus in the community.
Archbishop Francis has decided to reduce the risk of his Installation becoming a potential spreader event, and to show his support for and solidarity with all who provide care for those suffering from Covid-19, all healthcare workers, and all work on the frontline in any capacity, the number of invited guests will be reduced to a minimum.
Therefore, Archbishop Francis respectfully asks those who have been invited not to attend in person but instead to watch the ceremony online, or to listen to the ceremony on Galway Bay FM or Midwest Radio. He regrets the need to take this decision, but he is confident that it will be received with appreciation and understanding.
The congregation in the Cathedral will now be limited to members of Archbishop Francis’ immediate family and a number of close friends, His Excellency Jude Thaddeus Okolo, Apostolic Nuncio to Ireland, Archbishop Michael Neary and a small number of bishops including the bishops of dioceses in the Tuam Province (Achonry, Clonfert, Elphin, Galway and Killala), members of the Tuam Council of Priests representing the clergy of the diocese, and members of the College of Consultors to whom the Holy Father’s letter of appointment must be shown. The laity and religious living in the Archdiocese will be represented. Others assisting at the Liturgy will also be present.
Those wishing to watch the livestream may do so by using this link: https://www.tuamparish.com/web-cam
PAT SAYS
Francis Duffy is a safe pair of hands and a plant maintenance type.
Don’t expect any thunder and lightening in Tuam for the next 12 years.

I see that the new Archbishop of Tuam is a Kilmore native. Is this an example of the Wounded Healer pulling strings, even now?
I looked at the CV of Francis Duffy and was amazed to see that his entire priestly service was as a desk priest. He was never a curate or PP. Many of us had hoped that under this pontificate the crazy policy of appointing desk priests as bishops had ended. Clearly not.
The Archbishop-elect was born on 21 April 1958 in the parish of Templeport, Co Cavan. He completed his post-primary education at St Patrick’s College, Cavan.
He studied for the priesthood at Saint Patrick’s College, Maynooth and was ordained a priest for the diocese of Kilmore on 20 June 1982.
He taught at St Patrick’s College, Cavan, and was appointed principal of Fatima and Felim’s Secondary School, Ballinamore, Co Leitrim in 1996.
After twelve years as principal Father Francis was appointed Diocesan Secretary, Financial Administrator and Chancellor. During that time he was resident priest in the parish of Laragh, Co Cavan, and lived in Clifferna. On 17 July 2013, he was appointed Bishop of Ardagh and Clonmacnois with his episcopal ordination taking place on 6 October 2013 at Saint Mary’s Church, Athlone.

KILMORE is being administered by Monsignor Liam Kelly Vicar General.
Bishop Martin Hayes has asked to have time out and have PRIVICY so that has been granted.
As a Christian organisation that request was granted and his request for Privacy also.

If these stories about Kilmore and its bishop are true, then it is a very strange situation where an ‘administrator’ is appointed and a bishop goes MIA. There may be very good reasons for this, perhaps health reasons. However, what we see here (if this situation is indeed as reported) is the Church resorting to its failed playbook tactic of just saying nothing and hoping that all the awkward, but perfectly reasonable and understandable, questions will just go away. How many times have we been down this road, and it always ends up making the matter worse ? Surely, Church authorities have the wit to take professional advice about how to manage difficult situations and crises, and that always is to get ahead of the crisis or situation, to be transparent and credible. They seem quite incapable of learning the lessons of past disasters and history. I despair !

“Missing”, many clergy are “missing” in different ways even when we “think” we can see them. “Missing” also is what they falsely profess to be – some don’t practice what they preach & are all & everything & more of that that they criticise in others. Is living off immoral earnings an actual crime in law? If so, we need to be looking more closely at the various sources of Church finances & assets in some areas.
