                  <text>This digital collection consists of a series of fifty annual reports of St. Brigid's Orphanage. Initially, from 1857 to 1860, the reports were delivered as part of the Annual Reports of the Ladies’ Association of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul. Overall, the reports detail the number of orphans; the reunification of orphans with parents; orphan adoptions; the schooling of orphans; the rearing of orphans; and often note mortality rates and apprenticeships. Examples of orphan circumstances are often depicted. The reports describe the support and donations for the cause; noting the support of clergymen and several guild associations. The boarding-out (foster care) system is described throughout the reports along with premiums paid to nurses (foster parents) with explanations of how the payment system works. In general, the reports offer insights to the protocols for religious instruction and education. Most reports discuss Proselytism, and some reports provide information about Protestant institutions (orphanages, schools, etc.). According to Jacinta Prunty (1999, 56-57), Margaret Aylward is considered to be the main author of these reports prior to her death in 1889. The reports are valuable little-known primary sources for the study of charity networks, poor relief, orphan statistics, childcare, foster care, and education in nineteenth-century Ireland. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On behalf of the Sisters of the Holy Faith Congregational Archives, this collection was digitised and curated by Helena La Pina (2020). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;References Prunty, J. (1999) &lt;em&gt;Margaret Aylward, 1810-89: Lady of Charity, Sister of Faith&lt;/em&gt;, Four Courts Press Ltd.</text>

                <text>Fiftieth Annual Report of St. Brigid’s Orphanage (1907). It is submitted by the Sisters of the Holy Faith. The report details the number of orphans; reunification of orphans with parents; orphan adoptions; orphan apprenticeships; the schooling of orphans; ‘The acquisition of secular knowledge is necessary but holds a secondary place'; and the rearing of orphans. Case histories are detailed. It notes that admissions were mostly for children in danger of losing their Catholic Faith.  Proselytism is  mentioned throughout.  Examples of orphan circumstances are depicted. Protocols for religious instruction and education in general is detailed. The benefits of the boarding-out (foster care) system is discussed. It explains how Holy Faith Schools are not in receipt of state aid.  It provides statistics on attendance; and of children who completed First Communion, and Confirmation. It accounts for the number of children in attendance at Holy Faith schools who had previously been in Protestant schools. A list of benefactors and donations to St. Brigid’s Orphanage and Holy Faith Schools is listed (including clergymen and guild associations). Two Charity Sermons are reprinted. One by  Fr Lynch and St. Brigid’s celebrating its golden jubilee and one from Fr Albert Keane, O.D.C. In the appendix is a letter of solicitation for support, donations, and subscriptions, including donations by the guardians of the North Dublin Union. Also, in the appendix is a description of assistance of the Sisters of the Holy Faith to the Society of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen Of Charity, in Little Strand Street; and an extract of a pamphlet published by his Lordship the Bishop of Southwark and kindly presented to St. Brigid’s Orphanage, titled ‘Practical Direction and Suggestions as to Appointed Testamentary Guardian.’ </text>

                  <text>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. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;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 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;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. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On behalf of the Sisters of the Holy Faith Congregational Archives, this collection was digitised and curated by Helena La Pina (2020).</text>

                  <text>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. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;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 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;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. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On behalf of the Sisters of the Holy Faith Congregational Archives, this collection was digitised and curated by Helena La Pina (2020).</text>
