It happened on 23rd January 1952, but 73 years later it is as fresh as ever. (Recorded in Broughshane Gospel Hall, 1st Dec 2024). (Photo above: Buckna in 1938 with Slemish in the background.

As winter approaches, Helen Mark heads to Drenagh Gardens near Limavady where Conelley McCausland has set about restoring the vast walled garden and extensive grounds which had almost disappeared under the invasion of bamboo. Also on the programme, a visit to Ciaran Mulholland's garden at the foot of Slemish where he's growing a ready supply of winter veg. In studio, Reg Maxwell joins Helen to take questions live and Tony Kirkham reveals his tree of the month for November.

In this week's programme, David Maxwell travels to the National Botanic Gardens, Kilmacurragh in county Wicklow. The country cousin of the gardens at Glasnevin in Dublin, Kilmacurragh covers over 100 acres and enjoys a mild maritime climate where rhododendrons and Chilean exotics flourish. David walks through the crocus lawn with head gardener Seamus O'Brien and gets a sneak peak behind the scenes at a newly acquired historic walled garden. Also on the programme, Tony Kirkham chooses Arbutus unedo, also known as the strawberry tree, as his ‘tree of the month' and Ciaran Mulholland is pruning trees at his garden at the foot of Slemish mountain in county Antrim. David will also be putting questions from listeners to expert Brendan Little including how much wheat you need to grow to produce a home grown loaf.

David explores a secret walled garden close to Belfast where globe artichokes are on the menu. Hidden Huntley is one of the 19th century ‘linen houses' of Lagan Valley and it's been home to Antonia Malcolm's family since the 1920s. But there is trouble in paradise as Box blight has wiped out an important element of the gardens structure. Still, there is more than enough soft fruit to go around and rhubarb is being ‘forced' – David finds out what difference it makes. Also on the programme, a visit to Ciaran Mulholland's garden at the foot of Slemish where he's dividing snowdrops ‘in the green', work continues at Glenarm on the new woodland garden and meet the robots that garden.

Episode twenty two in the series: After his resurrection, as Yeshua ascended into the clouds from the Mount of Olives, the angels promised the disciples that he would return in just the same way.  Daniel says he will come with the clouds of heaven and all nations will worship him.  His kingdom will last forever.   Zechariah describes His feet touching the Mount of Olives, instigating a tremendous earthquake which will split the mountain in two, east-west.  A river will flow out of the city in two different directions: east to the Dead Sea and west to the Mediterranean Sea.  According to The Revelation, this earthquake will have repercussions around the whole earth, causing the cities of the nations to collapse! The Messiah will appear accompanied by his armies, including the righteous from all over the earth and those who have died, now resurrected.  He will go to battle against the Anti-Christ beast and all the rulers and armies of the earth – destroying them with “the brightness of his coming.”   -------------------- With music from:   Papilio (Nova Scotia, Canada) – 'Chorolations', (Emergence);   Barry Bynum (Texas, USA) – 'Walk Through The Fire', (Stickin' Your Neck Out);   Slemish (Northern Ireland, UK) – 'You raise me up', (Slemish).   Produced by Precious Oil Productions Ltd for Kingdom Come Trust

Maewyn Succat, born on March 17, 493 by parents, Calpurnius and Conchessa. As a teen he was kidnapped by pirates and sold into slavery in Ireland to herd and tend sheep on Slemish mountain, Co Antrim. During his six-year captivity, he became fluent in the Irish language, he turned to God in prayer. He escaped after having a dream sent from God in which he was told to leave Ireland by going to the coast where he would find a ship waiting to sail to Britain. He was set the task of teaching Christianity to the Irish. He travelled throughout Ireland for more than 40 years preaching the Gospel and converting many through his anological shamrock teachings of the trinity. He is the legendary eradicator of ophidian creatures, the “Apostle of Ireland”. He’s St. Patrick! In his honor, we, today, die rivers green, host parades and hoist a pint. Join Mike and Tim as they celebrate the honor of the greatest Saint that ever lived with music by... and lots of fun facts about St. Patrick and St. Patrick's Day.

Abuna Elias Chacour was the first Palestinian priest to be appointed in Galilee - 19 years after the State of Israel came into being.  The Israeli military had deliberately destroyed his family's home village of Bi'ram, in northern Galilee, forcing his father and brothers into exile and he had every reason to be a bitter opponent of Israel.     Instead he has become a major force for peace and reconciliation, building the only college in Israel today where Muslims, Druze, Christians and Jews both learn and teach together.  He has written two books and spoken in many nations and, in 2006 was appointed as Archbishop of Galilee (ie. Israel) in the Melkite Catholic Church.     I spoke to him in his office at Mar Elias College, in the Arab town of Ibillin, Galilee.     Mar Elias College website:  http://www.meei.org     -----------------------   Includes NEWS from 'Bread NEWS International' and music from: Northern Exposure, (Northern Ireland, UK) - 'Co.
