During covid, we were actively trying to take advantage of an openness omong the Irish.  We put gospel tracts in over 15,000 houses and knocked on thousands of doors.  We saw a few depend on Christ for salvation, and hundreds of others heard a clear, spoken presentation of the gospel.

As we work our way thru the winter of 2022 and look forward to the spring, we are also grateful to finally exit Covid lockdowns.  For the last two years, Ireland has been more extreme than most countries with lockdowns, mask wearing, etc.: this affected how we ministered.

As Beth and I continue in the work God has called us to, those who support this ministry are often on our minds.  We are so very grateful for the generous sacrifices of those who give to and pray for missionaries such as ourselves.  To continue reading the update from Dan Canavan, please click on the link below.

In our last letter, we shared our battle with Covid, Dan suffering the worst of it.  We are happy to report that Dan has recovered from Covid. God supernaturally protected us as we defied lockdown rules and held public services since the end of 2020.  We are happy to report that the church is officially open once again.  To continue reading the update from Dan Dan Canavan, please click on the link below.

A two week trip to partake of our son's ordination changed our lives.  The trip had been previously canceled in 2020 because of Coved.  After graciously working around our schedule, Caleb settled on April 127, which would be followed by a missions conference.  To continue reading the update from Dan Canavan, please click the link below.

Though the lockdown for the Coronavirus has been difficult, there have been some rays of joyous sunshine.  Sandy & Jaime are a young couple in our church who are newly saved.  Jaime came to our church first.  He had been saved through listening to a street preacher on YouTube.  He found us through the church website.  To continue reading the update from Dan Canavan, please click on the link below.

By the end of September we were not allowed to meet as a church for 5 1/2 of the previous 7 months.  We were grateful to meet as a church during the 6 weeks reprieve at the end of the summer (though a very stiff lockdown has since been reenacted).  We are also grateful that YouTube, as liberal as it is, has faithfully carried our message at no cost to the congregation.

The lockdown has been a time of reflection and realization: we are in the last days.  We must use what time and means we have to earnestly proclaim the gospel to the lost and strengthen believers.  We continue to give spoken presentations of the gospel to those around us as the Lord gives wonderful opportunity to witness.
