The Archbishop of Dublin, Dr Diarmuid Martin, welcomed the appointment of the new Bishop of Ossory, Father Seamus Freeman and has assured him of prayers for his new ministry.
“I have known Father Freeman for many years. He is an exceptionally warm and kind man who I am sure will quickly win the affection of the diocese. His genuine humility hides a deep spirituality and the breath of his pastoral experience.
