Suday 20^th April is Easter Sunday and we celebrate Jesus, the Risen Lord.  In our churches celebrate with: a 6:30am Outdoor Holy Communion at St John's, Hook Church followed by breakfast; an 8:30am Holy Communion in Mattingley; at 10am Easter Communion & Egg Hunt at St John's, Hook; an 11 am Easter Communion & Egg Hunt in Rotherwick; a 6pm a Holy Communion Service at St John's, Hook and at 6:30pm Evensong at St Michael's Heckfield.

During Holy Week, the week between Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday, there are a lot of activities and services taking place, all listed on the Easter page.  If you are unsure what Easter is all about, our Stations of the Cross on Friday 18th April at 8:30am is a good place to start.  Any under 11's may like to sign up for The Wonder of Easter, our Holiday Club - we ask for you to sign up in advance (to ensure we have sufficient materials and helpers!).  

Coming up on on 27th April are our Annual Meetings for both the Parish of Hook and the Parish of HMR.  At the meetings we approve the Annual Accounts and we hear the latest news.  You also have the opportunity to elect members of the PCC, Church Wardens etc. It is an important meeting to celebrate our life and to support one another.  The Annual Reports are available here.

Please do check our weekly notices - see the link below - and have them delivered to you. Then it is easy to follow where we are each Sunday! In Hook, every week we have two services, at 10am and 6pm. In the Benefice, a weekly service at 8.30am, which moves around the 4 churches. In HMR, a main 11am service which moves around between churches, and 6.30pm Rotherwick Evensong once each month on the second Sunday.
