The army chaplain who was stabbed multiple times in Galway last week has been released from hospital.
The incident happened at Renmore Barracks on Thursday.
Fr Paul Murphy underwent surgery following the attack.
He thanked the public for their prayers after the incident.
In a post on Facebook, Fr Murphy said: "Friends, thank you for your prayers, love, and concern. Sorry that I can't reply to all messages and take all the calls coming my way. I'm doing okay...All will be well."
A 16-year-old boy was arrested and charged in connection with the incident.
The accused, who cannot be named for legal reasons as he is a juvenile, appeared before Judge Gerard Furlong at a juvenile sitting of Galway District Court on Saturday.
He was remanded in custody to Oberstown Children Detention Campus and will appear in court again via video link tomorrow.
