Rain Happens

Well, in our last week before school started we took the girls downtown Cork to get a look at their school and the church that it was named after. It is called St. Finn Barrs Cathedral. There has been Christian worship on this site for 1000 years. This church has been standing for around 300. It has been bombed by ships with their cannons from the river and one of the cannon balls hangs in the church. It has an organ that is below the floor that goes in for three stories. The girls will probably do choir there and possibly a Christmas production with their school.



As we toured around it Gary was taken with the idea that it was like a corpse, the makeup is on but the body is dead and only being preserved. I was however a spectacular building.









Liz Bryce asked for a pic of me and Mungo so here you go Liz.

Way to go guys. This is the first time on your Blog and it is very interesting. Love that homeland eh Gary? Our ancestral roots are all there but methinks we would need the call of God to go there as you did!
All is well here, except for Kim who is not well physically or mentally. She was in KGH from mid June until yesterday and now is back home and trying to adjust to doing things for herself. It is sad. By the way FBC had to cancel ALPHA this year. Reason given is people are too busy doing other things. I think it is lack of volunteers.
Anyway Ward did his last sermon the last Sunday in August and now its guest speakers and the search committee doing their thing.
Love to all
