Welcome Alistair Doyle as new Regional Coordinator for Leinster and Connacht in Ireland.
Alistair says, ‘I am an ordinand in the Church of Ireland. We started our Messy Church in St Matthias’ Church, Dublin, four years ago and it has been a blessing to our parish, building community and growing faith. I pray for other churches across Ireland to see the missional opportunity that Messy Church provides, and I look forward to providing guidance and encouragement across Leinster and Connacht, as the Messy network flourishes.’

Feed the Birds!
4th Mar 2025Consider the ravens: they do not sow or reap; they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable you are than birds! Luke 12:24 (NIV). I was inspired after our Messy Church Goes Wild session, ‘Wild on the Wing’, to dig into the Messy Church value of ‘hospitality’ and see if I could welcome more birds into my suburban London garden.
