THE Diocese of Cork and Ross will be sending its trainee priests back to
Maynooth despite the current controversy surrounding the famed
religious institution, Bishop John Buckley has said.
The Bishop of Cork and Ross confirmed that three current trainees and a number of men starting out on their journey of vocation will be studying for the priesthood in Maynooth rather than anywhere else. It comes following the revelation of Archbishop of Dublin, Dr Diarmuid Martin, that he did not believe that the National Seminary in Co Kildare was the right environment for trainee priests in his diocese. He has said that those trainees will continue their vocation journey in Rome instead.
