Belfast Cathedral invites the public, politicians, business people, students and anyone with an interest in public theology to a series of five lunchtime events focused on Brexit during Lent.
Wednesdays in Lent is a collaboration between the Cathedral and the Corrymeela Community. The programme is entitled ‘Theology in the City – Brexit, Borders and the Book of Ruth.’
Beginning on March 13, and continuing on March 20 and 27 and April 3 and 10, each session will run from 1.05pm until 1.50pm. You may wish to join us for Holy Communion from 12 noon until 12.30pm. Refreshments for the Wednesdays in Lent talks will be available from 12.30pm, or bring your own lunch!
This series is facilitated by Glenn Jordan from Corrymeela.
Today's session is:
Who is Family?
In chapter 3 there are strange goings on that bear the whiff of scandal, and we are face to face with the lengths that vulnerable women have to go to to gain some security. But it also challenges us as to the nature of family, belonging and kinship. Brexit has placed a strain on these elements of our lives together on these islands. How do we navigate the complexity?
