Service of Hope at Easter

The leaders of the four main Christian churches offer personal messages of hope for Easter Sunday, with hymns and specially recorded music performances.

For much of the past year, Christian communities across Northern Ireland have not met in person for collective worship due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

In a special programme for Easter Sunday, the leaders of the main Christian churches in Northern Ireland, along with the President of the Irish Council of Churches, offer personal messages of hope to take people forward and look ahead after a year dominated by the coronavirus.

In Service of Hope at Easter, the reflections of the church leaders are intercut with hymns recorded in recent years for Songs of Praise in Northern Ireland, along with bespoke and contemporary performances of the psalms from Kiran Young Wimberly and the McGrath Family, recorded at the Burnavon Theatre in Cookstown.

Presented from the Waterfront Hall in Belfast by Audrey Carville.
