A silent gathering took place in Listowel today in response to the comments made by Fr. Sean Sheehy last weekend condemning same-sex relationships, transgenderism and contraception.
This event was held outside the church where Fr. Sheehy made the controversial statements.
The aim of this was to give people who felt affected by the comments a sense of solidarity.
