BBC Radio 4 - Sunday Worship, Remembering then, remembering now

A series of reflections, spoken-word poetry and hymns on the theme of remembrance.

Dai and Cath Woolridge  lead a service of remembrance from Cardiff's Urban Crofter's Church, featuring reflections, spoken-word poetry and hymns from worship group Sound of Wales.

Dai Woolridge is a story-teller, spoken word artist, and creative specialist at Bible Society; Cath Woolridge is a worship leader and founder of the contemporary worship collective Sound of Wales. Together they conduct a service of remembrance from Cardiff's Urban Crofter's Church, honouring those who have lost their lives in conflicts past and conflicts present. As well as reflections and scriptural readings, the service will contain some moving spoken word pieces,  drawing on personal experiences.  

The readings are drawn from the Book of Job and from Revelation, reflecting on a moment when there simply are no words with which to comfort those who suffer, and looking forward to a time when there will be no more tears. 

With musical accompaniment from the distinguished worship collective Sound of Wales, hymns include:  It is Well; Abide With Me; Nearer my God to Thee; Remembrance (Hillsong); Amazing Grace; Gwahoddiad. 

Worship Leaders: Dai and Cath Woolridge
