Above is David and Melanie
Darraugh. Melanie is originally from Minnesota, USA and David is a local Irishman. Together they play beautiful bluegrass! David used to be a worship leader on the
Doulos Ship. They met August of last year at a concert they both were involved in...and less than one year later...they are married! Life is good!
Our staff minus a few. We have team members from Brazil, England, Dubai, Holland, Germany, Ireland, and the States. Soon we will include another group from the States (2 families from Atlanta and one from
Las Vegas) as well as my new roommate Julia from Australia!
Here is the unveiling. The marble stone
(which was donated to us) reads "Unless the Lord Builds the House the Builders Labor in Vein". Psalms 127:1. This was the verse the couple who first renovated Lacken House, wrote on the wall as a reminder of who they were building this for. It served as a bed and breakfast until July of this year when the Christian couple found OM Ireland and sold the property so that it could be used for God's ministry work in Ireland! We believe this verse is straight from God for us as well as we endeavour to build out the rest of the property (the dorms and our offices).
Mike speaking of all the Lord has done. Our offices used to serve as the previous owner's bridal
boutique. A gentleman visiting the property when OM first purchased it...took one look at the former bridal boutique area (which are now our offices) and said "God is not done with this place...He is still preparing "the bride"..."the church"...and you all are blessed to be a part f that!"
The Crowd listening to all the amazing stories. It was so encouraging to see friends and family from all over Ireland come and greet us in the name of the Lord and support us in this important day! We had close to 200 people...and for an event in Ireland...that is a lot!!!
