BBC One - Songs of Praise, Faith in Action

New presenter Brenda Edwards sees how faith is put into action in east London.

New presenter Brenda Edwards visits an outdoor walking church in east London, and Katie Piper meets the vicar who has become a hit on social media with his 60-second sermons.

Singer Brenda Edwards presents her first Songs of Praise. She is in east London, joining the Bonny Downs Baptists on their Sunday 'walking church' around the Flanders Field memorial garden, finishing with Holy Communion in their community garden. She also joins their walking football team to hear about the benefits of fun, faith and footie. Katie Piper meets the Rev Chris Lee, whose 60-second online sermons have gone viral, attracting over 170,000 followers. Katie also meets two award-winning women whose charity, Wave, brings those with and without learning disabilities together in friendship. There’s music from around the country, including a performance from Brenda Edwards.
