Aghada Presbyterian Church & Trinity Cork Presbyterian Church
Aghada (linked with Trinity Cork),
Sunday Service 10 a.m.
A home mid week bible study is held during winter months.
Background: The core of this East Cork rural congregation was some farming families of Scttish extraction who settled in the area in the late 19th century. From 1899 until 1925 they worshipped in a small corrugated iron building built by a Scottish firm who were introducing the then new technology of corrugated iron. In May 1925 a redundant Church of Ireland 'estate church' was purchased for 100 pounds and this is the present Aghada Presbyterian Church. A very distinctive feature is the old stone font situated at the church entrance.

Points for prayer
Aghada
We have run a children's holiday bible club for a week in August since 2005. Please pray for the organisation of this, and our hope to attract children from the wider community.
Trinity Cork,
Our desire is to make the church accessible to the wider community where it is placed, through worship that is welcoming and bible based and through literature outreaches at times such as Christmas and Easter.
