McFarland Speaker Series: Rev. Harold Good

The inaugural event in a new Trumbull County speaker series will feature the Rev. Harold Good, whose life's work has taken him from Northern Ireland through Warren, Ohio, to the front lines of peacebuilding and reconciliation. Rev. Good lifts the curtain on his remarkable life in his book, In Good Time , a memoir with Martin O'Brien. Good couldn't have imagined that one day he would help change the course of Irish history, play a hitherto undocumented role in weapons disposal by FARC and ETA in Colombia and the Basque Country, and be asked by Queen Elizabeth II over lunch in Buckingham Palace for advice about her visit to Ireland. Rev. Good was born in Northern Ireland, ordained to the Methodist ministry, and earned a Master of Sacred Theology from Christian Theological Seminary in Indianapolis, Ind. He served as a youth minister at the First Methodist Church in Warren, Ohio, from 1964-1966 before returning to Northern Ireland. Rev. Good has received numerous awards for his peace work. Registration is required for this free event.
