Hogeye Navvy Returns to The Garden

Join us this Sunday as we welcome back Hogeye Navvy for a celebration of Irish Blessings. These timeless words of wisdom and hope remind us of the power of community, love, and faith in our lives. From the rolling hills of Ireland to our hearts today, we will explore how these blessings invite us to embrace joy, resilience, and the warmth of God's presence. Come ready to be inspired, uplifted, and connected through the rich tradition of Irish culture. Let the spirit of these blessings fill our hearts and guide our steps as we journey together in faith. Sláinte!
