An Tobar Nua - The New Well

by Shawn Small

Overview

In Galway, Ireland a building sits alongside a canal, its painted yellow exterior a sharp contrast to the dark stone around it. Inside this historic building, new blends with the old, and the staff and patrons are as diverse and interesting as the city. Since its opening in 1996, people from more than thirty nations have stepped through the doorway. But few of those who visit An Tobar Nua (Irish for "The New Well") know its incredible history, or the battles waged for its existence.
In 1993, God called Kelly Curry from life as a corporate executive of a Fortune 500 company, and his wife, Susan, to Galway, Ireland. This is the history of the ministry that developed, told through the Curry's story and that of the other men and women who came alongside, drawn by God's grace and purpose. It chronicles the challenges of faith and obedience of a group of people, diverse in their backgrounds, denominations, nationalities and ages, brought together in an uncommon community living in the relevance of Christ and His Word.
Above all, it's the story of how God transforms the most unlikely people into expressions of His love and hope.

About the Author

Though we’ve often openly and willingly shared our story—God’s story of radically changing two people in much need of His grace—it’s been far more difficult to see it put to paper. It’s a prospect we didn’t look for and didn’t want. However, repeatedly throughout the years, we’ve been asked to write down the steps that led to 25/27 LowerDominick Street and to tell the stories of that old beautiful building and how it came to be. Our approach would have been to tell the story of An Tobar Nua. Yet Shawn Small, the master storyteller, thought otherwise and we yielded, asking him to tell more stories than simply our own.

Thank you, Shawn, for your patience, love and even more patience as we worked through this process.

Editorial Reviews

As I began to read The An Tobar Nua Story I found myself humbled, challenged, and deeply encouraged by the amazing story of two overcoming fellow-believers. How I admired our God even more than ever as I read how He pursued Kelly and Susan as the "Hound of Heaven" so they could achieve a "great exploit" for Him through a most unique pilgrimage.
