St. Hilda's House is a residential young adult discernment program devoted to spiritual formation and urban ministry while living in community. It is based at Christ Church in partnership with Berkeley Divinity School at Yale University and is supported, in part, by a generous grant from Trinity Church Wall Street's Trinity Grants Program as part of the Episcopal Service Corps.

Beginning in September 2010, eight St. Hilda's House interns will take up residence in the Christ Church Rectory, on the parish grounds.  (Fr. Cobb is moving to another house nearby.) St. Hilda's House interns will deepen their understanding of themselves, their work, their faith, and their ministry by participating in mutual support, communal formation, and intentional worship and prayer. The interns will assist in the regular Sunday liturgies at Christ Church, with the opportunity to take part in our many weekday liturgies as well. Interns will serve throughout the greater New Haven area in various urban ministries like the Community Soup Kitchen, local food banks, shelters, clothing collection and distribution.  Other opportunities include hospice work, low- income housing renovation, & the Chapel on the Green.
