The local churches in East York are again gathering to mark the day with a walk of witness. The walk begins at St Aelred’s Church at 11am where there is opportunity to pray the stations of the Cross. The walk continues along Melrosegate to Holy Trinity and Heworth Methodist Chapel and then turns along Tang Hall Lane finishing at St Hilda’s Church. A Cross is carried to lead the walk and along the way there are pauses for prayer and readings. At St Hilda’s church everyone is welcomed for hot cross buns and tea or coffee.
Please join the walk if you are able but you are also welcome to come for refreshments just before 12 noon when the walkers arrive.
Following the refreshments there will be a short service of meditation. Other churches
though welcome to stay, of course, will be leaving for their own Good Friday acts of worship.
This will be St Hilda’s act of worship for Good Friday

This group meets in the upper room on the first Tuesday of each month. There is the opportunity to
talk, to listen and to pray together. This is planned to be a monthly event and it is hoped
that it will provide a setting where people can grow together in faith and fellowship.

The Annual Church Parochial Meeting will take place on April 12th after the morning service.
This grand sounding title is simply an annual review of what has been happening at St Hilda’s
over the past year and gives an opportunity to look to the future. There is a chance to look at
the finances of the church and to elect the PCC for the next year. Nomination forms for this
will be made available in advance of the meeting. There will also be copies of the accounts
and the reports from the groups which meet. These will be distributed in advance of the
meeting. Please stay for this meeting if you can do so. It gives a good insight into the life of
the Church here at St Hilda’s.
