Isle of Man's Christian Heritage

BBC One - Songs of Praise, Isle of Man's Christian Heritage

Aled Jones uncovers 1,500 years of Christianity on the Isle of Man.

Aled Jones discovers that the roots of Christianity on the Isle of Man stretch back over 1,500 years.

Aled Jones is on the Isle of Man to discover how the roots of Christianity stretch back over 1,500 years.

He visits Cathedral Isle of Man and learns about the story of Saint German of Man. Aled also discovers how the rich Christian history of the island is portrayed in the cathedral’s unique, interactive gardens.

Further afield, Aled meets a Christian shepherdess and her flock to hear about a rewilding initiative in a local church’s grounds. Then at Café Lingo, he learns about an English language teaching enterprise led by a methodist church to help new arrivals to the island, with an ethos inspired by the Bible’s stories of welcome.

Back at the cathedral, Aled meets some of the volunteers who tend to the gardens and hears how faith influences their work and what made them to want to help.
