Faith and Service (2024x16)

Data de estreia: Abr 21, 2024

With St George’s day just around the corner, Rev. Kate Bottley is in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne meeting Christians whose acts of service and selflessness continue to make a positive and lasting impact on their communities. At St. George’s Church in Jesmond, Kate discovers the remarkable legacy of famous author Catherine Cookson and meets a Ukrainian family whose lives have been improved by her charitable Trust and the church. In London, we hear about a special set of awards given out by the Archbishop of Canterbury, which recognise extraordinary contributions to the Church and wider society, including for community service. We meet a recipient of one of these awards, Rev. Mark Nam, who was recognised for his work in supporting Chinese heritage clergy through a group he established called The Teahouse.
