Sunday 2nd April 2023 @7pm Huddersfield Town Hall Hope Huddersfield are hosting an Easter Celebration at Huddersfield Town Hall. We will welcome J John and Gaz Thompson as special guests. This will be evangelistic in focus so a perfect opportunity to intentionally invite friends, family and neighbours. I have attached some promotional material for Facebook, Instagram and your church Notices. We are still working out with the Town Hall how best to organise tickets but we wanted you to be able to share the exciting news! We also have a link to two video especially recorded by J John which you can download via We Transfer: https://we.tl/t-YcLhOjXxY9 The first is a short interview with J John and Steve Hurd from Hope Huddersfield, as he talks about the event and how to invite people, the second is a shorter 30 second talking head recording which will give a flavour of what to expect on the night, we would love for you to show this in your churches. We would also welcome the opportunity to share this event in person and if you would like a member of the Hope Huddersfield team to come along to your church please get in touch with the Hope Office via [email protected] / 01484 5355554 and we will happily sort that out for you.

This year the Circuit project is Action for Children and during Lent we have some leaflets available which have some thoughts for each day during Lent, giving us information, asking for our thoughts, speak to friends or family and on some days make a donation for specific reasons.
We are a few leaflets still at church, however if you need one please contact David Schofield, or print the leaflet (attached). We are asking for leaflets and any donations to be passed to David before the end of April, so that these can be passed on to the Circuit. There is an opportunity to Gift Aid in your donation if you pay UK income tax, as long as you complete and return the back of the leaflet.
