HAS MARK KIRBY LEFT SILVERSTREAM?

The photo below has appeared on the Silverstream website.

The caption below says;

“The photograph above shows our community present here at this time”.

As Kirby is NOT in the photograph are they telling us that Kirby is not in Silverstream?

Or is it simply slight of hand?

And is Kirby simply lying low inside the monastery?

Kirby should not be in the monastery. If he remains there it totally undermines the future of the monastery.

EAMON MARTIN ON ABUSE AT ST. COLUMBS.

THE leader of the Catholic Church in Ireland has said claims made directly to him about alleged child abuser Raymond Gallagher were later passed on to the PSNI.

Archbishop Eamon Martin, who is also a former pupil at the prestigious college, served as its president between 2000 – 2008.

Eamon Martin needs to answer three questions on this matter:

1. When did he first become aware of Raymond Gallagher’s abuse?

2. Was he aware of it as a student.

3. After first hearing about the abuse, how long did it take him to pass the information to the PSNI – hours, days, weeks, months or years?

It took his predecessor Brady 30 years to own up.

PRAYER FOR THE SUFFERING PEOPLE OF UKRAINE 🇺🇦

OUR LADY OF VLADIMIR (GREAT POWER)

Mary, Our Lady of Kiev, the God Carrier (Theotokos) we ask your intercession for the suffering people of the Ukraine, their government and their people attempting to resist the attack which primarily comes from evil.

Be with Ukraine today as you stood beside your suffering son on Calvary.

Give those people faith and hope and strengthen them in their belief that by the Grace of God and the involvement of men and women of good will everywhere, their lives and country will be preserved and that there will be peace after war. Amen.

It’s a good step that Kirby has left Silverstream (if indeed that is what has happened). But it’s not enough. Fr Andersen was treated like garbage. God will not bless that community unless they (Deenihan included) make reparations for how they destroyed a victim to save an abuser.

12.18: RN, he had many years of hell, not just in the past 2 years, thanks to you and your trolling and denouncing of him along with other Oblates and associates. I cannot believe that you can continue to speak about Silverstream with the expectation of credibility and respect. Despite your “apology”, has Dom Benedict made any response to you? I think you should let us know if he has done so. You’ve been asked this question before but never answered it. Can you do so now? I am rather surprised that you are back in the blog.

12.18am: Robert, if Dom Benedict has heard your apology, what is/was his response? Are you still in touch with him and are you, along with other concerned associates, financially supporting him?

It’s pertinent that you answer these questions before we go in a merry go round again of speculation, innuendo and imbalanced vommentary.

Marin yes I’ve spoken to Dom Benedict and yes I’ve offered to send money. Dom Benedict has refused money from me because he is afraid It will impact his case and he will never get closure.

I’ve asked Dom Elijah if I can send him money and he won’t respond.

Had I known about the other mens testimonies 2 years ago none of this would have happened. I was played. I absolutely commit to ensure Dom Benedict gets justice. As for my comments on twitter, well when the pillar article came out I felt it missed those facts. When I met Pat and finally was able to piece it all together it killed me how Dom Benedict had been treated, he is a victim, it wasn’t normal and he should have closure. The Church will have to look at all this, because Silverstream or the visitation team could have resolved this. But with men like Richard Purcel on the team, who later had his own visitation. What could we expect other than a coverup, and this is a coverup.

This is not over and I won’t stop until Dom Benedict has closure and the help he needs.

4.13: Robert, what games are you playing? Stop making a fool out of yourself. You were found to be out of your depth re: Silverstream and Thurles and you are promising now to ensure justice for Dom Benedict. I have acknowledged your video content as being very deep and inspiring and I belueve this shoukd be your main focus. I abhor all intrusions into your family’s lufe. Totally evil. However, before you make further big promises, can you confirm if Dom Benedict sanctions your efgirts in his name? Or are you just making up for your misguided interpretations of the entire Silverstream drama, in which you played a part? Can you give your honest opinion about the manner of commentary in recent days about the monks? Sometimes we convince ourselves that we are truly champions of truth and justice but we often get the strategy very wrong in our approach. There is an unending drama about Silverstream that we are stuck on “variations on a theme”. Robert, can you answer these questions. Thank you. incidentally, I believe you might provide a good reflection about LENT for tomorrow. Can tomorrow be a true day of fasting for all of us in every way? And a day of prayer for The Ukranian people, as Pope Frances has asked for?

Actually the comments above would explain a lot.

Up till now the public statement has been that Dom Kirby has been cleared of any wrong doing and has not been prosecuted but has not been reinstated as prior.
But…
If Dom Kirby has been diagnosed with an illness which would affect his physical or mental capacity to be prior that could explain why he hasn’t been reinstated.

And this just hasn’t been made public (which is fine) but has forced an outcome which looks contradictory. Ironically if a statement had been made to say that he had been cleared by the visitation and not prosecuted but was not being reinstated for health or personal reasons this would have looked much more suspicious but only because of the sheer number of abbots who have resigned recently for these reasons.

I think it is clear that we have seen “peak” Kirby. He is toast. There is just too much on him for him to take back the reins or to assume leadership roles anywhere else. The best he can expect is to do is to lurk in the background somewhere, trying to be as incognito as possible. The trouble is that if he has contact with his preferred group of young monks, priests, people, then he will still be able to do what he has done in the past. So, + Pat, I think you should keep on his case, let people know where he is, and give warning of his propensities and predilections. A bit like the list for sexual offenders. A list of dodgy clergy / monks. Keep it up !
