Songs of Praise

Claire McCollum visits the Cornish coast to explore the remarkable history of "the church of storms" — a place of prayer occupying a curious and beautiful position in the sand dunes, just a few steps from the roaring waves of the sea. Officially St. Winwaloe Church in Gunwalloe, it is a sanctuary where Christians have worshipped for over 1000 years. Local expert in Celtic history, Priscilla Oates, takes Claire to the place some believe to be St Winwaloe's first hermitage, in the cliffs just off the beach. And Rev. Pat Robson tells Claire about Celtic Quiet Places, a project dedicated to keeping churches open so that visitors can find peace. Later, Melanie Chadwick, a local Christian artist, invites Claire to join a sketching group whose challenge is to capture their subject in just fifteen minutes. Claire finds out about a time of challenge in Melanie's life and how this inspired her to take up her paintbrush and share her creative calling with others. With music from "the church of storms" itself introduced by those Claire meets in the programme: 1. The Lord of Sea and Sky — The Church of St. Winwaloe, Gunwalloe 2. Bind Us Together, Lord — The Church of St. Winwaloe, Gunwalloe 3. Eternal Father, Strong to Save — Christ Church, Port Sunlight 4. Come, Holy Ghost, Our Souls Inspire — The Old Royal Naval College, Greenwich 5. Here Is Love Vast as the Ocean — Unoma Okudo 6. It Is Well with My Soul — Trinity Baptist Church, Croydon 7. Will Your Anchor Hold — The Church of St. Winwaloe, Gunwalloe
