The Corrymeela Community

Founded in 1965 Corrymeela’s objective has always been, and continues to be, promoting reconciliation and peace-building through the healing of social, religious and political divisions in Northern Ireland. Corrymeela’s history is built upon a committed work with individuals and communities which have suffered through the violence and polarisation of the Northern Irish conflict. Our vision of Christian community and reconciliation has been expressed through a commitment to encounter, interaction and positive relationships between all kinds and conditions of people. www.corrymeela.org

  • Handle

    There is a door handle, on the wall, in our lecture room. There is no door attached to it!! So far the comments have been, ‘well at least we’ve got a handle on this lecture’ and ‘if we open that does the lecturer go away?’ and ‘that is one big door’ and ‘we’ve got a handle on the wall, well at least we’ve got a handle on something!’ Perhaps you have to experience this to understand it, but during two hours of pretty cloud skimming lecturing, a handle on the wall is just the most sublime image!
