ORDINARY MIRACLES IN A LITTLE PLACE ON THE PEACE LINE - 4CF18 READINGS by TONY MACAULEY & PHILIP ORR
25/01/2018
Before Tony Macauley was a popular author, even before he was a popular radio DJ, he was a courageous peacemaker. Indeed, all three of those things mingle in Tony’s most recent book Little House On The Peace Line.
Little House On The Peace Line tells a story of a Protestant project of reconciliation and social justice in the Catholic New Lodge area of Belfast. Macauley being brave enough to move in and work in a Catholic areas is quite something. Catholic communities allowing them too, is quite something too.
Some years before Tony’s subjective memoir of this pioneering project, Philip Orr wrote a more objective history of the 174 Trust. The book was called An Ordinary Kind Of Miracle, it was and still is.
We are delighted that both Macauley and Orr are going to read form their books at the 4 Corners Festival. In a festival that hopes to inspire courageous transformation, this is a story of that already attained. Come and be inspired by change that has already happened to give us all hope for more change to come.
