Our final speaker this year will be John Dunlop on Thursday 11 April. The Very Rev Dr Dunlop CBE is a former Presbyterian Moderator, who worked in Jamaica for 10 years before serving in the Rosemary congregation of North Belfast. He has been described as “one of the most significant figures within Irish Presbyterianism in the latter half of the 20th century.” We enjoyed hearing Rev Dunlop preach here during our vacancy. Why not come along to hear his personal reflections on his life and career? We meet at 10.30 am – all welcome. |
