Bryce & Carolyn Carlaw have been serving in the Cork city suburb of Douglas since 1998 along with their four children. A new church started there in May 2006, where Bryce is an elder and does the majority of teaching (as there is no pastor at the moment). Their desire is that the Douglas Baptist Church will go on to reproduce and start a new church in the neighbouring town. This has, in fact, already happened as several leaders from Douglas were part of a church plant in the neighbouring town of Passage West. While their loss has been felt at the Douglas church, it is wonderful to see what the Lord has been doing in this church plant in Passage West.
The desire of the local association of Baptist Churches in the south-east of Ireland is to see more churches planted as the Lord leads and guides. Pray for the leadership of Douglas Baptist, Passage West and other sister churches that are involved in this push to see other churches formed in this very needy part of Ireland.
To get the latest up-dates from the Carlaws, please contact the church office.
We were blessed to have Bryce here in person preaching in July 2022. To listen to the message he brought that day, click on the video link below.
