Ireland and the Irish make for fascinating reading! Well, maybe that’s more than just a biased statement ---after all, I am Irish born and bred. But whether you are an exiled son or daughter, a person of Irish descent or just an interested visitor, I’m sure this site will fill your mind and dreams with informative and encouraging thoughts and ideas.

The Irish Culture Newsletter ---"Ireland Calling" will be an added attraction to your email. Each month (and soon I hope, each week), I’ll have a new article to keep you up to date on all that is going on in our Irish Culture site and bring you as much news as we can from Ireland to help you grow in your knowledge of this beautiful land and her people.. By signing up for the weekly newsletter, you’ll receive all the details you need to know about what is happening on our site. No, this newsletter won’t overload your inbox and you won’t have to set aside three hours to take it all in ! A few minutes will let you know all that’s going on !

Now, before signing up --- you’ll need to understand the following good news. The information you provide will not be sold or shared . To tell you the truth, even I won’t know your details unless your ISP sends me a “bounce” or rejection notice. If you decide later that you don’t want to receive further newsletters, then just unsubscribe.

After you sign up, a confirmation notice will be sent to you to verify your spam filter is allowing reception of our particular email. If you don’t get this confirmation, you will need to approve us manually in your email system.

It is my goal that through this newsletter, we can help grow a very special family connection among all who are interested in Ireland and the Irish. The Emerald Isle is a land with a very strong history of family and “belonging”. Years of traditions are bound up in extended and developing families; I hope that you will become part of the "Ireland Calling" family. By the way , what better gift could we give our loved ones and friends than to share our newsletter with them and invite them to enjoy all the benefits of being a member of Bella ?

I look forward to welcoming you to our family .
