Leadership

Andy O'Connell

Title & Role:

Leadership, Pastoral Support & Media

Spiritual Journey:

I was raised a catholic, but the Lord opened my heart through my uncle whose passion and hunger for Jesus and love for life was contagious. I gave my life to the Lord in my late teens, but it was my early 20’s that Jesus truly became Lord of my life.

Vision for the Church:

I would love to see the church grow in the power of the Holy Spirit. The number of members and church ministries all stem from the churches focus and commitment to God and I would love to see us grow in that way.

Educational Background:

I trained as a Psychiatric Nurse with a post-grad in Social Care.

Family and Personal Values:

My beautiful wife Carolyn and I have a wonderful home, with the 2 most perfect kiddies we get to nurture and see grow.

Passions and Interests:

The Lord has used worship powerfully in my life since I became a believer so I have a heart for that. I have been on missions to Africa, Asia and South America and cannot promote missions highly enough.

Fun fact:

I’ve been told I could sell ice to a polar bear and a Kerry flag to a Cork man! (Up The Kingdom!)
