WHAT HAPPENED THE FIVE FIGURE SUM OF MONEY IN GER FITZGERALDS BANK ACCOUNT?

THE FIVE FIGURE SUM IN GER FITZGERALD”S BANK ACCOUNT HAS NOT YET BEEN EXPLAINED.

Carole noticed the amount in a bank slip Ger dropped on the floor.

“Larry” a friend of both Ger and Carole told Carole it was not Ger’s money and that he knew who the money did belong to

Larry said he would tell the bishop who the money belonged to.

Fintan and Larry met in Sixmilebridge and Larry gave Fintan all the information.

It has now been stated that the money is no longer in Ger’s bank account.

But where is the money?

Is it back with the original owner?

Does Fintan have it?

Do the Gardai have it?

Who was the owner?

Where was the money from?

Was it legitimate or dirty money?

And why and how was it temporarily deposited in Ger’s account?

It is quite suspicious when large sums of money are moved from pillar to post.

What has Fintan reported Ger to the Gardai for?

This money?

Prescription drugs?

The marajuna?

Mind you, in all RCC scandals, those in the know always say: “Follow the money”.

11 YEARS AGO THE NEWLY ORDAINED GER FITZGERALD PUBLICLY CALL FOR “OPEN AND HONEST CLERGY:

Would Ger give himself that same advice now?

Or, has something changed?

For money that was ‘savings’?

Ukraine, Apr 12, 2022 / 10:10 am
The head of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church (UGCC) expressed concern on Tuesday at plans for Ukrainian and Russian families to carry a cross together at the Stations of the Cross led by Pope Francis at Rome’s Colosseum on Good Friday.
According to an April 12 press statement from the Secretariat of the Major Archbishop in Rome, Major Archbishop Sviatoslav Shevchuk said: “I consider such an idea untimely, ambiguous, and such that it does not take into account the context of Russia’s military aggression against Ukraine.”
“For the Greek Catholics of Ukraine, the texts and gestures of the 13th station of this Way of the Cross are incoherent and even offensive, especially in the context of the expected second, even bloodier attack of Russian troops on our cities and villages. I know that our Roman Catholic brothers share these thoughts and concerns.”
Shevchuk’s intervention followed that of Andrii Yurash, the new Ukrainian ambassador to the Holy See, who expressed concern about the format of the Way of the Cross in a social media post on Tuesday. He wrote that “we are working on the issue trying to explain difficulties of its realization and possible consequences.”

Like

It has been noticed by quite a few outside small class of people who sadly watch His unHoliness (eg. over Grassi, Zanchetta, Barros, Maradiaga, Coccopalmiero, Inzoli et al.) that Francis struggles to criticise Russia clearly or strongly. Given his pandering to Kirill 50 hats (Patriarch Kirill or Agent Michailov has 50 pricey hats for his patriarching, Bergoglio has before said there shouldn’t be Greek Rite Catholics just Orthos) and Putin (who wouldn’t take his call when war started). It is a bit along the lines of when there’s an abortion legalisation effort underway in any country, Francis says not a word, or very little. Perhaps it is like a certain class of tankie (ie old Commies in the UK) utterly supports Russia. A certain paranoiac fringe of Catholicism usually dislike Francis, but hold the same position on the war, and they can give voice to their real opinions.

Returning fully to this, Russians themselves are almost wholly supportive of the ‘special operation.’ Allegedly younger Russians do not support it, but even in the realm of online anonymity there are few Russians oppose it. They support it. Outside of a small class of Putin critics, there are almost no Russian opponents of this wicked war. Bucha and other atrocities are ‘false flag’ which is usually a word otherwise now used by online schizos. There is even a recording where a wife says she is doesn’t care if hubbie rapes Ukrainian women, just use protection and don’t tell her (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YqGHMVgePAs).

One more mention of Francis is to note that since V2, it was the custom to make the Major Archbishop a Cardinal. Francis did not.

Speaking of Fr Ger, one mark of repentance is making atonement. Even if those women don’t seek the money back, Fr Ger should return it.

An Garda Síochána would like to provide the following advice to the public in general when speaking with or intending to meet up with persons they have met online:
Get a face picture from the person you intend to meet. Be very cautious of a person who doesn’t share a recent face picture with you, particularly after you have shared yours.
If they don’t want to share a face picture, consider asking them to go on a live video call (many apps have this option built in so you don’t have to share your mobile number).
Ask for their social media handles. Do you have friends in common on Instagram or Facebook? Be wary of new accounts with low follower count and few posts.
Let friends know where you’re going – send a text to a trusted friend or in a group chat, include your live location so you can be found if you need help.
Meet in a public place first. Take a few minutes to chat and feel confident you want to proceed before going somewhere private.
Think before accepting food or drink. Unless you’ve seen them prepare it – it’s best not to accept to avoid being spiked.

Reason for going to Knock was to confess my sins before Easter but it took a lot longer with only 4 priests at various confession boxes. Met a quite fussy priest who wouldn’t touch a paper. He asked me what age was I abused as I told him it was at age of 7. He looked shocked and bit shook.

Tomorrow is the Feast Day of every man, woman and child who ever loved and cared for anybody. That is a quote from Father Ronan Drury RIP….. the most profound thing I have ever heard said of tomorrow or priesthood. Pity it never found theological root in the RCC doctrine despite its ubiquity in the human family. The Feast of every man, woman and child whoever loved and cared for anybody ……

Our Parish Priest does not appear to have housed any Ukrainians despite all the chit chat & encouraging others to do so.

I hope Eamonn Martin and Dermot Farrell will contact Kevin Doran to tell him to keep his mouth shut at this time. His track record is pitiful.

If McAleese is moved from St Pats it will not be good for the parish. Why don’t they just get rid of the PP. Very few parishioners can stand the fool and his phoney posh accent. The man is full of his own self importance and a lot of people see him as an actor. He single handedly is responsible for the state the parish is in

I am at a cross road in my future as a catholic.I am not able to look at a priest on the alter without wondering how is he dealing with his sexual urges.Why Why do men follow a long period of study then reach the high point and get ordained .What is causing this disconnect its so sad now the faithful have no dedicated leader at the local level.

Your concerns are reasonable.
Unfortunately, the institutional Church has long engaged in deceiving the laity about the moral character of priesthood and priests: such phrases as ‘sacred priesthood’ and ‘Holy Orders’ , along with such titles as ‘Father’, reinforced these grotesquely false stereotypes. It is why the institution went to extraordinaryily UNHOLY lengths to conceal its moral huge feet of clay (for example, its handling of child rape by priests), because it’s so-called ‘authority’ to teach and guide (and, therefore, its continued power over the laity and its prestige) pivoted on the laity’s unquestioning acceptance of this propagandist nonsense.
Expect nothing of priests except a never-ending cycle of moral subterfuge and betrayal. If you do, you’ll never be surprised or disappointed.

Pat, the UN refugee agency has advised the UK government not to match Ukranian women and children with single men because of the potential dangers posed to their lives, as in being forced into unethical or unwanted behaviours or into trafficking. Isn’t it horrible that some people, mostly men, would countenance harming any refugee? I hope all governments will ensure the safety of refugees by placing them in the safest of families and environments. What a horrid world at times. I agree with commenter at 11.14. Pray for these two good men in Sligo who were brutally murdered. .

Can we all remember the men who lost their lives so brutally in Sligo. What horrible crimes! These deaths and the violence often seen on our streets are ugly, unacceptable and deserving of total condemnation. Two very lovely human beings – may God be kind to them and bless their families.
