About Us
A Journey of Faith, Family, and Healing
Deacon Thady O’Connor, a deacon from Killarney, Co. Kerry, is more than a man of faith, he’s a living testament to resilience. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he spent over three months in hospital and two months on a ventilator. What could have been the end became a powerful beginning.
Emerging stronger, he dedicated his life to sharing the message that every breath is hope, and every challenge can be a prayer. Through his writing, talks, and music, Thady brings comfort and clarity to people seeking peace in difficult times.
At the heart of his life is his family, wife Carmel, and children Patrice, Clodagh, Ronan, and Evelyn. Their bond and love inspire much of his work, reflecting his belief that faith begins at home.
Based in Killarney, County Kerry, Deacon Thady O’Connor shares his faith journey through podcasts, talks, books, and music, all rooted in love, family, and gratitude. His mission is simple: to remind every heart that faith can turn even the darkest moments into light.
