| Did you know? |
| John Wesley, the founder of the Methodist Church, was born on 17th June 1703. He came to Ireland onmany occasions, preaching locally in Portadown, Richill,Tandragee, Derryanville, etc. In 1808 a great revivaltook place, so great were the crowds that open air meetings were held. The largest of these was in Mahon, where it was estimated there were 5,000people present. Hundreds experienced Salvation. Other such meetings were held at Scotch Street, Derryanville and Dawson Grove were many were touched by the Grace of God. John Wesley died on 2nd March 1791, aged 88 years. He had amassed a small fortune by his writings but had given it all away in the building of the Kingdom of God. All he had left was enough for his burial , a few silver spoons and the Methodist Society. |
