Day 8: 2026 Ireland

Ireland
Written By West End Community Church

Ponder and pray

The team enjoyed free time on our final day of the trip with shopping, museums, and good food! It was a day to decompress, enjoy new and old friendships, and experience all Dublin has to offer.

As we return home, our hearts are full, and we are so thankful for a beautiful week of relational mission and new connections. We have much to ponder and pray over the next few weeks and are incredibly grateful for the relationships formed and strengthened and for all God allowed us to experience and witness in Ireland.

HOW WE’VE SEEN GOD AT WORK:

  • Our relationships—new ones forming and existing ones growing

  • The opportunity to reflect together on all God has done

  • Time to rest and enjoy fellowship as we prepare to return home

prayer requests:

  • The staff of Tiglin as they process Frank’s passing

  • Men and women in recovery working to overcome addiction and learn more about what it means to have a relationship with Jesus

  • Especially for the women in recovery, that their hearts be comforted as many have temporarily given up custody of their children to enter treatment

  • Students in the aftercare program who are working hard to maintain their sobriety as they reenter society

  • Staff of The Lighthouse, who work diligently to serve those in need on Dublin’s streets

  • Safe travels as we begin our journey home today
