doors. Since then it has been occupied by various concerns -- most recently Dublin's Labour Exchange. Today it stands empty -- but that's about to change...In the 1970's, Trinity Church, Greater Europe Mission's first church plant in Ireland was established. It is now perhaps the largest evangelical congregation in The Republic of Ireland, with three congregations throughout greater Dublin. Recently the Trinity Central congregation has been crowding into a small church building which happens to be only a few blocks from the aforementioned Trinity Church building.
Now, nearly a century after Trinity Church abandoned the property, in an interesting twist Dublin City Council and Trinity Church have worked out a swap of sorts. The city is taking possession of Trinity's current building while Trinity has agreed to pay a certain additional sum and gain the Gardiner Street property. The plan is to completely renovate the property so that Trinity Church (the congregation and the building) will once again fulfill its purpose as a beacon of light in a spiritually dark society.
Is that a God Thing, or what?
