A Question of Belonging

The Corrymeela Community and Belfast-based film-charity, esc films (www.esc-film.com), are collaborating together to produce and deliver “A Question of Belonging” a resource that supports the inclusion of LGBTQI+ people in places of faith. 

Since 1981, Corrymeela has been a welcoming place for LGBTQI+  people. Initially welcoming the then Gay and Lesbian Christian Gatherings, Corrymeela sought to provide a place of support and retreat for people who were facing extraordinary hardship. Since that time, Corrymeela has continued its witness to LGBTQI+  people, working to provide pastoral support, working with clergy and faith leaders to engage conversation around inclusion and producing resources on inclusion and dialogue. esc films is an award-winning culture and arts education charity specialising in storytelling through drama and film. They aim to transform lives through film-therapy. They have worked extensively since 1999 within mental health, criminal justice, community relations and cultural diversity.
