So I have been back for a week from Ireland. I still cannot wrap my mind about the trip. It was more than I could have ever hoped for, and I definitely left my heart there. The history, the heritage, the words we spoke over the land and the worship we ushered in: all of it is still stirring around in my heart, without a way to release, just knowing I must go back...soon! We had some of the most amazing times of worship and every single person on this trip brought something to the table when it came to the way we glorified Him. Like I said, it is still so overwhelming to think about, so I shall just post pictures, because they speak volumes.
