BBC One - Songs of Praise, Amazing Faith

Sean Fletcher is in Alton in Staffordshire to visit a Catholic youth retreat centre.

Sean Fletcher is in Alton in Staffordshire to visit a Catholic youth retreat centre which raises self-esteem, and builds and strengthens friendships.

Sean Fletcher is in Alton in Staffordshire, not at its famous theme park Alton Towers but at its castle, now a Catholic youth retreat centre which raises self-esteem, and builds and strengthens friendships. He meets the young Christians running it who help ensure the youngsters leave with some treasured memories.

The programme looks back at two stories of amazing faith featured over the last year, including the fantastic freestyle footballer from Milton Keynes and the Christian astronaut who walked on the moon but found more fulfilment when he gave his life to God.
