Welcome, Farrell Scholars! I am Meagen Farrell, author of Teaching Adults: A 2014 GED Resource Book, available NOW from New Readers Press. My next project has been successfully funded via Kickstarter! I’m spending 2013-14 researching the development of women’s ordination in the Anglican Church of Ireland.
