Description
An account of the resource
The collection contains two publications of St. Brigid’s Orphanage. It is envisaged that other publications may be added to this collection in the future, as part of an ongoing curatorial project. <br /><br />St. Brigid’s Orphanage: Instructions to the Nurses (1899, 2nd Edition). It is submitted by the Sisters of the Holy Faith. The guide focuses on providing instructions for Nurses (foster parents), who are the mainstay of the boarding-out system (foster care). The six specific instructions are: Instructions, Correction, Good Example, Vigilance, Schooling and Work. Nurses (foster parents) are encouraged or incentivised, via premiums, to accept orphans as their own. In addition, they are encouraged to foster Catholic teachings, create awareness of Protestantism, and provide appropriate ‘correction’ or corporal punishment. Nurses (foster parents) are provided with examples of maladaptive behaviours, expectations from education and the recommended school-age, expected level of educational attainment. They are also instructed on the differing roles male and female children display; particularly with regard to functional responsibilities and their position in the home and/or farm. St. Brigid’s Orphanage for the <br /><br />Rescue of Irish Catholic Children from Protestant Proselytism (1909). It is submitted by the Sisters of the Holy Faith and penned by Fr John Gowan. The booklet opens with a request for support and donations for St. Brigid’s Orphanage. It notes that the orphanage was founded ‘for the purpose of rescuing Catholic Orphans and destitute children from the Proselytizers’. It mentions the indulgences granted by Pope Pius IX, Pope Leo XIII, and Pope Pius X. Examples of orphan circumstances are depicted. The document discusses the work of St. Brigid’s Orphanage, the boarding-out (foster care) system and the Nurses (foster parents) living in the countryside. Protocols for religious instruction and education, in general, is detailed. The booklet also provides a reprint of the Annual Charity Sermon by Rev. Thomas Maher, S.J. His sermon encompasses subjects such as Proselytism, describing the Holy Faith Sisters as heroic, the famine of 1845 and ‘black’ 1847, discrimination in employment, anti-Catholic quotes from various public figures, and an overall denunciation of the Protestant faith. <br /><br />On behalf of the Sisters of the Holy Faith Congregational Archives, this collection was digitised and curated by Helena La Pina (2020).
