Hi! What a day! It really will not be possible to put into words, but I will try. Worship service starts at 11am, so we started right on time at 11:15! Love the Irish timing! The atmosphere was so Spirit filled, it was awesome! People bring their instruments and play along as they feel inspired. In between songs, praises, prayers, and scriptures are shared by the saints. Mim joined right in with a few other violins that were present. The setting is informal and feels very much like a family gathering, the unity and love overflow. I love the way the love of Jesus so comfortably knits us together. The Church service also included sharing lunch and plenty of fellowship time.
After service, we headed back to the school for final preparations for the big day tomorrow! For dinner we went out for some "pub grub", the tastiest and most economical eat-out available. That is the picture above. Eoghen (Owen) was our waiter and the 4th generation O'Sullivan to manage the pub. He was very generous and showed us the original building (they still use the room) built in 1837! Time is flying by! Thank you for your prayers and keep them coming!!
Love to all (especially Dan, Jess, Maddy, Ellie and Noah!),
