Jesus wasn’t born in a Stable, Corrymeela Ballycastle
15 Dec 2016
Corrymeela Ballycastle
You are very welcome to join the Corrymeela Community at our Ballycastle Centre for a series of four morning discussions on the nativity texts of the gospels of Luke and Matthew.
This series will explore the powerful descriptions of the birth of Jesus, the genealogies, the atmosphere of political conflict into which these narratives speak and some details that are either overlooked or invented (for instance, that Jesus wasn’t born in a stable).
These mornings will be led by Pádraig Ó Tuama. Pádraig is the leader of the Corrymeela Community, a poet and theologian. He is a popular speaker and broadcaster and lectures on the topics of the gospels, conflict and poetry.
These seminars are free, and all are welcome, suggested donation per seminar £5. Tea and coffee (and perhaps the occasional mince pie) will be provided.
These seminars will take place at our Ballycastle Centre on the following dates:
Thursday 24th November
Thursday 1st December
Thursday 8th December
Thursday 15th December
The times are below. You are very welcome to join us for worship at 9am, or coffee at 9.30am. The Advent talk begins at 10am in the Croí at Corrymeela.
9am Silent worship (Quaker Style)
9.30am coffee in the Croí
10am Advent talk – finish at 11.15
