Since we left Ireland, the church has grown so much. They've gotten their own building in Clondalkin and the branch has grown so big that they meet in the Relief Society room as an overflow from the chapel. Its really cool to see the diversity in the ward. Ireland has a lot of Philippinos and Africans so there are lots of cultures within the branch. There was a great feeling there and it felt good to be back where we first found the church. Really cool to see a lot of the old faces and to know they were still our "brethren in the gospel". One of the most touching things to me was when we sang the hymns, how the Irish voices mixed with the foreign voices were loud and beautiful. Its wonderful that no matter where you go in the world, the church is the same. Its like having family anywhere in the world.
