2022 - 17: Living Faith in Paisley

Katherine Jenkins visits Paisley Abbey in Scotland, where she meets their newly appointed female minister, the Rev Elspeth McKay, and the director of music, George McPhee, who demonstrates the magnificent 150-year-old organ. Russell Macmillan, who is registered blind, explains why he helps those in need in East Renfrewshire with small acts of kindness that make a big difference. Local Christian Liz New tells Katherine why she felt compelled to help those in Ukraine, and we find out what other Christian charities are doing to help. YolanDa Brown meets John and Isobel Gibson, whose faith helped them cope when their son Cameron tragically took his own life.

With comforting and uplifting music from around Scotland, including the hymns Praise My Soul the King of Heaven and All My Hope on God Is Founded, and a performance of What a Friend We Have in Jesus by the band Celtic Worship.
