One Year

It's hard to believe we've been here for one whole year! Yesterday, St. Patrick's Day, was our one year anniversary of living in Ireland. I still remember those first moments leaving the airport like it was yesterday.

Here are a few highlights of our first year in Ireland.

  • Des & Eimear picking us up at the airport. 
  • Two great months in Limerick with the Enget family, Pastor Kevin, & the Abundant Lifefamily. 
  • Moving to Dublin and joining our St. Mark's Church family. 
  • Meeting great new friends at St. Mark's Church. 
  • Finally got used to driving on the left side of the road. 
  • Going to Germany for SFC Europe's Connect Conference with Sarah & James. 
  • Found our favourite chipper in Dublin. 
  • Getting to know students & friends at Chapel Group, the CU at Trinity College, & Agapeministry. 
  • A great friendship built with Julian Hamilton
  • Our first Thanksgiving in Dublin with family & friends. 
  • Our first event on campus as Students for Christ Dublin. Link
  • Our first Christmas in Dublin with family able to fly in.
  • Getting the news of our first child. 

It's been both one of the greatest and toughest years of our lives. We count ourselves incredibly blessed by the opportunity & journey that lies before us. We wouldn't be here without your prayers and support. Thank you.

Here's to many more years!
