Corrymeela presents a Public Theology course entitled

‘Women, Trans & Non–Binary People’s Lives As Sacred’This programme will be held on six Tuesday nights from 8.00pm–9.15pm via zoom. (Tuesday 4th, 11th, 18th, 25th October and 8th and 15th of November, 2022). The hosts are Teagan MacAodhagáin and member Sarah Williamson.

The programme aims to practice a liberation theology approach to exploring the relationship between story and sacred text. It will include reflection on stories from our own lives and his (her) stories, drawing on these as we read stories from Christian Scripture together.
