“Farm to Eucharistic Table: An Oral History by Fr. Tom Coyle” captures the Irish wit, wisdom, and warmth that Fr. Tom’s parishioners were blessed to experience. This oral history . . . is testimony to his deep faith, humble love of God, and abiding love for the people of God.

Farm to Eucharistic Table is a biographical narration by an Irishman who chose early in life to be a ‘Father rather than a Farmer’.

​

Fr. Tom is at his best with eyes twinkling (feels like he knows something you don't), the chuckle (like he's enjoying it as much as you), the drawl as his voice raises at the end of a sentence... and the "By Gully." Father Tom's sharing (of) his views on the church of the future (confirm that the church is) alive and well!!

​

The interviewer Sarah, narrator Rebecca, and videographer & editor George have combined their talents to create a film  as good as any pro. It was their personal touch using their hearts and heads to create the perfect balance of music to set the scene, photography to cover the subjects (places/people), questions and interviews to cover the subject matter and timing to keep it interesting without rushing!


p.s., watching it a second time gave me a chance to discover what I missed the first time!!
