Situated on the A4 between the villages of Clogher and Fivemiletown, our congregation has been worshipping God since it’s formation in 1970. Originally assembling in a wooden building the first permanent meeting house was erected in 1977. In 2021 the congregation moved into our new meeting house with the former building transformed into a church hall.

- 62: The Question of Augustine’s Son“Watch ye“ (Acts 16:13) Several years ago I delivered a talk on Augustine. An elderly father and grandfather questioned me at the door – “What happened to Augustine’s son?” This was a sound question and one that I had not quite covered. Augustine lived with a woman for many years, with whom he had fathered a son called Adeodatus, who was in his mid teens when Augustine was converted. The reason this thoughtful man asked the question was that Augustine had abandoned the woman—what we would today call his common-law wife—after many years together. Our sympathies certainly extend to this… Read more: 62: The Question of Augustine’s Son
- 61: The Death of Monica“Precious in the sight of the LORDis the death of his saints.” (Psalm 116:15) Each of us must one day come to life’s final harbour. From there we embark upon the last journey—from time into eternity. Our earthly labour will be finished and we shall stand before God. After Augustine’s conversion he resolved to return with Monica to North Africa. The two waited at the port city of Ostia for their voyage but in the providence of God, Monica had reached another port. It all happened so suddenly. As Augustine later recorded in his Confessions – nine days of illness… Read more: 61: The Death of Monica
- 60: Tolle Lege“put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ” ((Romans 13:14) The Holy Ghost so powerfully convicted Augustine, that he was driven to tears and intense soul searching as he sought peace with God Seeking refuge under a fig tree in a quiet garden he heard a child sing a simple rhyme from a neighbouring garden – Tolle lege, Tolle lege – meaning Take up and read. Believing this to be God’s providential prompting, Augustine picked up a copy of the Scriptures and opened Paul’s Epistle to the Romans. His eyes fell upon these words: Let us walk honestly, as in the… Read more: 60: Tolle Lege
- 59: The Mother, her Son and the Preacher“For this child I prayed” (1st Samuel 1:27) The mother was Monica, an extraordinarily devout North African Christian who was bitterly disappointed by her marriage to the spiritually careless Patricius. Augustine was her son. He was a brilliant academic who rejected his mother’s Christian faith. She became particularly concerned for her son’s soul, when he followed the religious group known as Manichaeism. Rejecting Christ, Augustine pursued deeper knowledge through rational means. Yet Augustine’s attraction to the Manichaeans revealed something important. His longing for deeper truth showed a searching mind and a seeking soul that God would later graciously satisfy. Such… Read more: 59: The Mother, her Son and the Preacher
- 58: Feet of Clay“Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice” (Ephesians 4:31) Jerome for all his prodigious learning, had little reputation for godly grace and temperament. Whatever he learned from Scripture, he often failed to apply those aspects of Christian grace that reflect humility, patience, and longsuffering. Church historian Philip Schaff’s assessment of Jerome reminds us that even the best of Christian men—the brightest lights and the most useful instruments in the Redeemer’s hands—may still display some of the worst traits of fallen humanity. “He was very impulsive in temperament,… Read more: 58: Feet of Clay
