Fr Martin Magill The North’s Community Relations Council (CRC) has honoured a Catholic priest and a Presbyterian minister for their cross-community cultural work in Belfast.
The CRC presented to Fr Martin Magill of North Belfast’s Sacred Heart Catholic Church and South Belfast’s Fitzroy Presbyterian Church’s Rev. Steve Stockman with the CRC Annual Award for Civic Leadership in front of their respective congregations.
The award, now in its third year, seeks to recognise exceptional contribution to civic leadership in Northern Ireland and sustained leadership that has helped promote community relations, peacebuilding or intercultural work.
The clergymen are perhaps best known for their highly-regarded 4 Corners Festival, which draws people from across Belfast together through cultural and arts activity.
