Easter on Holy Island
Sean Fletcher follows in the footsteps of saints and pilgrims to celebrate Easter on the holy island of Lindisfarne in Northumberland.
Sean joins the Northern Cross pilgrims who have been walking to Holy Island every Easter for nearly 50 years. With the tide safely out, the group sets off barefoot for the final three miles across the sands. Once on the island, Sean discovers its extraordinary Christian history, which stretches back 1,400 years, and learns about the Lindisfarne Gospels – an exquisite work of art and dedication to God produced on Holy Island in the 8th century. He also reflects on the meaning of Easter with a group from inner city Birmingham who come to Holy Island as part of their leadership programme.
With hymns and songs to celebrate Easter from across the UK.
