For the second year in a row Newry Rainbow Community in conjunction with Changing Attitude Ireland are hosting a night of Sacred Music and Scripture readings at St Catherine’s Dominican Church in Newry on Friday the 16th of May.
The night is organised to mark IDAHO day on the 17th (International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia) and the event also forms part of the first Northern Ireland Anti Homophobia and Transphobia Week.
Columba O’Hare, Newry Rainbow Community commented “It is really important for people in our community to feel welcome and have a sense of belonging to whatever religion or church they grew up with. We were all extremely moved by the warm welcome and special atmosphere at last years event in the beautiful Dominican Church and are extremely grateful to all at St Catherine’s especially the Prior Fr Ralph, for helping make this happen again this year. Small gestures really do make a massive difference”
The evening begins at 8.15pm on the 16th at the Dominican and will include songs and readings and a short reflection from Richard O’Leary, Chair, Changing Attitude Ireland followed by a cup of tea in the Dominican Hall.
All are welcome.
