The Chosen, the multi-season series about Jesus of Nazareth
It's one of the most successful crowd-funded projects ever, with its makers claiming that during four seasons of the series, viewer support raised nearly $100m in production expenses. But the chances are if you're not a US Christian, you might never have heard of The Chosen, the first multi-season series about Jesus of Nazareth, told through the eyes of his disciples and followers, as well as his opponents.
The series is all based on the gospel accounts of Jesus's life and ministry.
In seasons one to three, he assembles his inner circle of disciples, delivers the so-called Sermon on the Mount, heals various people, including a woman who has been bleeding for 12 years, raises Jairus's daughter from the dead, and walks on water (excerpts released on social media show how the filmmakers recreate that miracle.)
As well as the series on The Chosen app it is also free to view at watch.thechosen.tv - there's the option to donate.
Episodes of The Chosen season four will be released in cinemas in the US, Canada, UK and Ireland from 1 February.
Streaming dates will be announced at a later date.

The Relics of St. Bernadette of Lourdes are on pilgrimage in Ireland and will be in the Diocese of Cork and Ross from 30 October to 1 November
St. Bernadette witnessed eighteen apparitions of Our Lady at Lourdes in 1858 and countless millions of people have visited Lourdes since.
This visit of St. Bernadette’s relics will afford to the many people who can’t go to Lourdes an opportunity to be close to St. Bernadette and to Our Lady of Lourdes.
People will be able to venerate the relics at the Cathedral of St. Mary and St. Anne, Cork, and at the Church of the Immaculate Conception, Clonakilty.
The programme is as follows:
November Remembrance Masses

Thursday 7th November at 7.30pm in Church of the Sacred Heart, Monkstown
Friday 8th November @ 7.30pm in St. Mary's Church, Passage West
"Even the winds and seas obey Him"Bishop of Cork and Ross invites people to respond to Church changes with a time of prayer, listening and discernment
On a weekend when heavy rain and winds had blown across his diocese, it seems more than coincidence that a new pastoral message from the Bishop of Cork and Ross should begin with a scripture quote: “Even the wind and the seas obey Him”.
Bishop Fintan Gavin read his message on Sunday to pilgrims attending the annual Mass at St. Finbarr’s Oratory, Gougane Barra.
Bishop Fintan’s message is a call to the people of the diocese to commit to a year-long time of prayer, listening and discernment about the future of the Catholic Church in the parishes and chaplaincies of the diocese.
In a time of unprecedented change in society and the Catholic Church in Ireland, people are understandably concerned about their parish’s future, he said.
Harbour Parish Funeral Ministry
The Harbour Parish Funeral Team has been in place since 2018.
Lay people are trained up to be part of the Funeral Ministry. The priest in the parish contacts the Co-Ordinator of the Funeral Team to advise them that there is a funeral and to delegate 2 people from the team to go to the Funeral Home or the Home of the deceased to do vigil prayers. These prayers are very meaningful to the family of the Deceased.
Funeral Ministry Formation Team welcomes new people to take part in the training in order to be part of Harbour Parish Funeral Team.
The dates for Funeral Team Formation and Training are October 8th 15th and 22nd in the Sacred Heart Centre, Western Road, Cork
If you are interested – Contact Anne Kelly - Funeral Team Co-Ordinator
Mobile No. 087-9826125
