2022 - 35: Christian Unity in Hertfordshire

Sean Fletcher joins Christians gathering in Hertfordshire at High Leigh, a 19th Century Manor House, which for 100 years has welcomed churches from all denominations to worship together and celebrate Christian unity.

Sean uncovers the history of the estate, a grand and beautiful former family home transformed into a centre for all Christians to come together. After worship and study, Sean gets stuck into a football match with guests at High Leigh learning how Christians can use sport to bring people together in a fun way.

Pam Rhodes heads to Westminster to join faith leaders and politicians attending a special 'prayer breakfast' organised by the UK Coptic Orthodox Church to raise awareness for persecuted Christians all around the world.

And in Luton, ten trainee hospital chaplains are invited on an interfaith walking tour of the borough, visiting several places of worship with the Christian charity Grassroots to deepen their understanding of different faith traditions.
