On Wednesday, 29 October 2008, the monks of Glenstal Abbey elected Br Mark Patrick Hederman OSB as Abbot for a term of eight years. Hederman is a native of Co. Limerick and has been a member of the community for forty-five years. Mark Patrick Hederman succeeds Abbot Christopher Dillon OSB, who is retiring after sixteen years in office.
Mark Patrick Hederman was born in Ballingarry, Co. Limerick. A former pupil and headmaster of the school, he has also taught in America and Nigeria. He studied philosophy and theology in France.
Hederman is the author of bestselling book, Walkabout: Life As The Holy Spirit, first published in July 2005 by The Columba Press. It is as popular today as ever. In Walkabout, Mark Patrick Hederman describes this period as an attempt to prove that the Holy Spirit is alive and active in the world today. His decision was like that of the ancient Celtic monks, he says, who set out in small boats, discarding the oars and allowing the elements to carry them wherever the Spirit willed. Ironically, this walkabout involved the opposite of what his monastic life had been for the previous thirty years, when it was guided by the monastic horarium and the demands of being a secondary school teacher.
