I see both the Limerick Leader and the Irish Catholic have given Father Lebocq some column inches about the Institute Apostolate in Limerick.

The Institute of Christ the King will be in Limerick on two Sundays a month - on the 1st and 3rd Sundays - from now on.

Can't imagine who are the two members who reckon Limerick is not a good location for the Institute of Christ the King. The Institute appear not to agree and watch this space in coming weeks for a significant announcement in that regard.
One which might just impact on a couple of other dioceses too.

Since I last wrote a third member disagreed with the Insitute presence in Limerick, so they may not quite like seeing the Institute's Irish website: www.institute-christ-king.ie/I think Monkeyman was looking for a banana... ;D

Now, aside from free discussion, we have a certain anonymity here (despite the best efforts of some users to refuse to respect this). I would like the nay-sayers to the Institue tell me why Limerick is not a good venue. Or maybe the Institute is not good enough for Limerick.
I think Limerick is a good venue for a group such as the Insitute of Christ the King because it is centre of settled population who showed a marked tendency to go to the traditional Mass on an occasional basis since the mid-1990s and have shown generosity in their contributions to the Institute since 2006. The Institute judged Limerick as a good venue to begin after some experience of coming to Limerick and have purchased a house in Co Limerick. All that remains is for them to send a priest permanently to Limerick. There is a stable community of several dozen who attend Mass two Sundays a month. So far it worked out and there has been no tension. Quite the contrary.
So, why not? Why not the Institute or why not Limerick? And by the way, forget the Stab City line - this is an argument in favour of bringing them in. It was Bishop Murray's primary motivation for inviting the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal to Moyross.

I suspect the nay-sayers were our resident atheists who think nowhere is a good place for such ministries. It is also possibe, though less likely, that they were Pixies expressing the same view for a different reason.

Hib might be right: if you look at the 8:3 divide here, I can't help think that 3 people on the politics thread say they're voting Labour and eight go for other parties.

I think we can expect the Institute to set up a permanent base in Limerick soon.

An Institute of Christ the King chapter is imminent. This will take the ultimate decision regarding the Institute's apostolate in Ireland.

An Institute of Christ the King chapter is imminent. This will take the ultimate decision regarding the Institute's apostolate in Ireland. Meanwhile.... Today, Sunday, August 22, Canon Jayr, provincial of the ICRSP in France, visited the faithful of the extraordinary form in Agen to announce the Institute’s withdrawal from the diocese following the deplorable welcome and climate of suspicion which followed the implementation of the Motu Proprio. Indeed the Bishop of Agen, Msgr. Herbreteau, has strictly forbidden Canon Téqui, who serves the parish of Agen to celebrate the extraordinary form of the one Roman Rite, from continuing to teach catechism classes which he had been doing successfully with some thirty children. He also places an outrageous restriction on the ministry of the sacraments. On the website of the diocese the ICRSP doesn’t even exist. The Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest has therefore made the decision to withdraw in order to do some good where it is more welcome. This news will sully the report that the bishops are required to make for the 3rd anniversary of the implementation (or non-implementation) of the motu proprio. It shows that France needs bishops prepared to apply Summorum Pontificum without restrictive measures (such as one monthly Sunday Mass in Le Brionnais – Diocese of Autun!) Perepiscopus

The report which Guillaume reproduces can be found at RORATE CAELI. What is worrying is that the ICRSS had actually been canonically instituted in the diocese, but the Bishop of Agen was still able to squeeze them out.

I think it illustrates that Summorum Pontificum has its limits. We should not overestimate Papal power.
