Shane ColemanHOST
You remember this period well, the standoff in Garvahy Road.
Shane ColemanHOST
the dreadful violence that ensued across, not just in Portadown, but across Northern Ireland, culminating in the death of the three Quinn children in Ballymoney.
Shane ColemanHOST
What was it like to live through that, to work there through that? It was an

extraordinary time.
Carl WhiteGUEST
I'm not blaming the Orange Order for the death of the Quinns, Stephen.
Carl WhiteGUEST
But I am linking the fact that the Drum Cree, the Drum Cree, Sorry, you're saying that, I'm not saying that, but I am liking the event that took place in Ballymoney in 1998 on the 12th of July with the John Cree protest.
Carl WhiteGUEST
Now, you're not going to tell me in this show that they're not related because they are and they very much were.

Alan WitherowGUEST
... supply, supply.
Alan WitherowGUEST
You know, Cookstown, Ballymoney, Kamsin all supplying as well.
Alan WitherowGUEST

Dale BurnettGUEST
We may have different accents.
Dale BurnettGUEST
You know, some people from Belfast might say they struggle to understand people from Ballymoney and so on as, but we all speak English.
Dale BurnettGUEST
In some of these places, you can travel 10 miles up the road, and they speak a completely different language.
Dale BurnettGUEST
So there may be a church in one village or one city, but that next city, that next town, they can't even access because they can't speak.
Dale BurnettGUEST
So OM's goal is to help provide aid and support to those areas.
Dale BurnettGUEST
The saddest thing, though, is, is even with the work of so many Christians throughout the world, that number increases every day by 55,000 people.
Dale BurnettGUEST
To put that into a Northern Irish context, that is the population of Coleraine, Ballymoney, Portstewart, and Portrush every day being born into these communities.
Dale BurnettGUEST
So when we did these figures in 2020, it was three billion reasons, but our number is way off.
David ClarkeHOST
But actually, you'd think this is them doing themselves down but what they're trying to say is you know we're good dependable people that you want looking after your money right so i think this is a bit of the same here it is an element of truthness but there's for some reason we want people to think this about ourselves So, yeah, I do see it the whole time.
David ClarkeHOST
And I was just down in, I went to the Church of Ireland church down in Ardham Mine and in Ballymoney, down in Wexford when I was there.
David ClarkeHOST
And definitely you could, you know, you could see this afterwards.
David ClarkeHOST
We had a joyful, you know, tea and biscuits afterwards, very much of that time.
