Gathering under clear skies: Church service in Hilders proves triumphant among diverse faiths
Ecumenical Mountain Service in Hilders: A Day of Unity and Community Spirit
Last Sunday in July, a large number of visitors gathered at the Rhön Club Hut above Hilders, despite mixed weather forecasts. The event was the annual ecumenical mountain service, organised in cooperation with the Hilders volunteer fire brigade and the Rhön Club branch association Hilders.
Despite the initial drizzle, the sky cleared, and the sun made an appearance. The service was musically framed by the Hilders church choir, the Hilders traditional brass band, and the Kolping family Hilders. Deacon Brenzel and evangelical pastor Weigelt led the service.
After the service, many visitors stayed at the hut in good spirits, enjoying brass music. The day served as proof that courage pays off, and it was a sign of living ecumenism and lived community in the Rhön.
From the proceeds of last year's mountain service, each of the five participating associations donated 500 euros to three kindergartens in Hilders, Simmershausen, and Eckweisbach. The day also offered an opportunity for encounter, conversation, and refreshment.
For those seeking more precise details about the ecumenical mountain service in Hilders—including participating organisations and beneficiary charities—it may be best to consult local church websites or contact Hilders municipal offices or local ecumenical councils directly.
The event in Hilders is a testament to the power of community engagement and shared faith, fostering spiritual unity and fostering goodwill in the region.
The following day could be a celebration of outdoor-living and home-and-garden, with the Rhön Club Hut serving as the perfect venue, embodying the lifestyle of unity and community spirit. Organizations such as the Hilders volunteer fire brigade and the Rhön Club branch association Hilders could collaborate for this event, offering visitors a chance to connect, converse, and refresh themselves amidst nature's embrace.
