The Stations of the Cross have formed part of Christian devotion at Passiontide for many centuries because they enable us to engage actively with the path of suffering walked by Jesus. They originated when early Christians visited Jerusalem and wanted to follow literally in the footsteps of Jesus, tracing the path from Pilate’s house to Calvary. They would pause for prayer and devotion at various points. Eventually, those pilgrims brought the practice back to their home countries and ever since then Christians of differing traditions have used this form of devotion.

St Hilda's Jesmond

St Hilda’s is located in the heart of Jesmond, just around the corner from the busy St George's Terrace and Acorn Road. We are a small but friendly congregation who seek to offer a warm and generous welcome to all in the name of Christ. Whether you are looking for a new spiritual home or simply wish to say a prayer, we hope that you will feel close to God in this beautiful building. 

We hope to offer you are a warm welcome, and through that share something of the generous love of God.
