This is our third year at the weekend long Oxegen music festival in Punchestown, Co. Kildare –>Oxegen<–
The media have started to be honest about the purpose of this “music festival”, having printed their top ten pick-up tips the week before.
This festival is supposed to be closed to under 17 year olds but our experience is [...]

Hecklers insist they have evolved from a Monkey
They heard the words of Jesus but they did not heed them.
Since the Word of God is the power unto salvation for all that believe I pray that the incorruptible seed of that Word will take deep root and the Holy Spirit of God will bring conviction of [...]

Waterford City is a busy city with large crowds of young people congregating in the pedestrianised square there. I met up with Dave Kinsella, from Dunmore East and we went to his usual spot.
Hecklers realise they're being filmed
I was wearing my “Million Dollar Question” jacket and before we had even started four young people had [...]

Following on from the previous three visits to the Capital I decided to go once again to that hotbed of liberality and preach the gospel of life to a dead world. On the way out of the house I grabbed 3 Spanish tracts and put them in my bag. Later sitting on the train opposite [...]

Last Saturday I met up with Dave Kinsella from Waterford, Joe O’Reilly from Dublin and we went to the capital city to preach the word to bring life to the dead.
Upon arriving we went to North Earl St., across from the historical GPO. There were truly multitudes of people. Some were going about their business, [...]

This last few times out in Wexford town we reverted back to one-to-one conversations and handing out special Christmas tracts which help people to see if they are on Santa’s “naughty” list or his “nice” one; obviously since we’re using God’s standard of measurement everyone ends up on the naughty list!
We have had some [...]

We’ve been doing a bit more outreach using preaching in Wexford recently. Several weeks ago we were joined by Anthony Brazabon from Dublin, Jim McGuire, Sean Bradford, Patrick McCullagh and Brian O’Donnell. We setup near the “bullring” in Wexford town; Anthony, Jim and Sean (and maybe Patrick) were lifting the name [...]

Where do I start? A very busy month has passed. Alongside normal day to day evangelism I got a phone call from Patrick McCullagh to see if I was going down to the Rathangan fair to evangelise the farmers!
Being a city boy I’d never heard of this fair and was keen to do a recon [...]

 Last Saturday we had a deviation from our regular street outreach; we went down to Wexford town.
This time we also went as a family, all the de Paor’s together for the Gospel. We met with Peter & Nichola Kelly and their children and with Brian O’ Donnell and last, but by no means least, we [...]

Early afternoon 3 weeks ago I joined with Oriel O’ Gorman, the pastor at the local, independent Arklow Baptist church. We spent some time in prayer in the park in the centre of town that used to be a graveyard and still has the headstones as “decoration” around the walls. The weather was very damp, [...]
