Our Beachy Amish Church

Dunmore East Christian Fellowship

This is our church, located in the southeast portion of Ireland.

I took this during our 'Game Day.'  Two Saturdays a month the children play games and have fun here. Beth is standing here in a blue dress as a boy runs by (in the midst of a running game- Flugs).

Our Homes

Since we've come to Ireland, we've lived in three different homes...and here they are:

Stradbally, Co. Waterford
Our first home.  We could only stay a few weeks as he had promised it to some others.

Dungarvan,  Co. Waterford
Our second home.  There are actually three homes pictured here.  Our home was in the middle- part stone, part white.  Our navy van is pictured.

Newtown, Co. Waterford
Our third, and last, home.  I took this picture today- the curtain is closed where Wolf is getting some desperately needed rest.  He just returned from the States!

Maggie and Sebi.  It was a windy hike to get to these falls.  Sheep were grazing all over these mountains.  It was very beautiful!

Open Day at Camp

December 2013:   Opening Day at Comeragh Wilderness Camp (CWC).  The community folks came to see what we're all about.  Loads of people came and the evening was a huge success!

Let's take a peek inside!

A big feast for all

The Comeragh Team!

I wish this picture came out better.  It's a Comeragh Wilderness Camp group picture.  Wolf is in the States, so he is missing.

Team at Blarney

In early January we drove 2 hours away to visit the Blarney Castle.  It was fascinating!  The famous stone to kiss is at the very top (left side)- above Anna's head.  We didn't kiss it, by the way.  I was surprised to learn it has its roots in witchcr*ft

This man sits at the top of the castle and helps people to bend backwards, so they can kiss the stone (he's now pointing at).  If you notice, there are bars there, but it's a direct drop to the ground otherwise.

The stone is where those 5 horizontal openings are, but on the other side of the castle.  You can see straight down, if you dare.

The grounds were beautiful (especially considering it was winter- January).

Comeragh Mountains

Here's the team again, with the Comeragh Mountains behind them!
