We have a wonderful problem in our Sunday meetings, and we need to hear from you as we try to solve it.
To address the capacity issue in our 9:30am meeting, we’re considering changing the times of our meetings to 9am-10:30am and 11am-12:30pm.

On Sunday we sent out an email to the church, explaining this in more detail.  If you haven’t seen it yet, click here to read the letter from John.

We’d be grateful if one person from each household could answer the following questions please, as best as you can, by the end of Sunday 16 April. Thank you for your grace as we work through this. And praise God that we have this wonderful problem!

 

This survey is now closed.  Thank you to everyone who contributed and we will update the church soon to follow it up.  Comments and questions can still be sent by email to pastors@kchw.co.uk

Read the first couple of stanzas from ‘How Great Thou Art’

O Lord my God, when I in awesome wonder
Consider all the works Thy hands have made,
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,
Thy power thru-out the universe displayed!

Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee;
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee;
How great Thou art, how great Thou art!

  • Reflect on these words.
  • Where have you seen God’s greatness in the world or in your life?
  • We might not always feel like worshipping, but we worship because of
    WHO GOD IS not what we feel.

 

Pray for the nation:

  • God’s kingdom to come in the political situations
  • The church in this country to be blessed
  • Miracles and answers to prayer
  • Freedom from oppression, slavery and injustice

 

Lift up our town and surrounding areas:

  • The churches in this town to be strengthened and blessed
  • God to move in the schools and universities of this town
  • God to move in the ministries and organisations that bless the town (Chosen, Learning English, Little Stars, BLESS Adventures)
  • People to know the love of Jesus that surrounds and saturates this town – pray to be equipped by the Holy Spirit that we may also be a blessing to those around us by sharing Jesus’ love.

 

Pray for our lives and our Church:

  • Who has God placed in your life to bless?
  • Where can you pray for the Kingdom to come?
  • Pray for an outpouring of the spirit over our church, that we grow deeper in prayer.
  • Pray for our leaders:
    • for John and his family in this difficult time.
    • for Rich H and Ruth as they lead the church.
    • for God’s peace and blessing to be on all of them.

 

Pray for our Sunday meetings:

  • For our Sunday meetings: let’s pray for Ayo and Katie as they lead the service; for Seyi as he preaches; and for Simon as he leads worship.
  • Pray for King’s Kids to know and encounter Jesus, and to understand what he has done for them.
  • Pray also for all of our serving teams, that they will be blessed as they serve and make Sunday happen.

Parking near King’s Centre:

  • Bridge Street Car Park is now the closest car park, but is a “Short Stay” private one that costs a bit more.
  • Desborough Square Car Park, and East Richardson Street Car Park opposite it, are the nearest council car parks, a 2 minute walk away and costing £1 to park on Sundays. 
    • The machines on these sites are not always operational, but RingGo (opt out of texts to avoid fees) or phone payment are accepted. RingGo codes are 1421 for East Richardson St Car Park and 31426 for Des Square Car Park.
  • Eden Centre is also nearby, at these costs, and the far end of the Purple zone, beyond the car park vehicle exit, has the pedestrian exit nearest King’s Centre.
  • Dovecot multi storey, which again costs £1 to park for the day on Sundays, is a 4 minute walk if you walk in/out using the Sainsbury’s main entrance. 
    • Please note that Sainsbury’s have recently adjusted the terms and costs for parking in their own car park. 
  • Street Parking on, and around, Desborough Road is free on Sundays but can be confusing, so please only park in designated bays and double-check permissions and charges.
  • If you’ve not been to us for a couple of years, Desborough Road Car Park, immediately outside the King’s Centre, is now closed.
    • There are two disabled parking bays outside our building, and those attending on Sunday mornings with mobility concerns or transporting those with difficulties can contact the church office to request one of the ‘assigned’ spaces. 
    • During the week, the parking bays outside King’s Centre are available to staff and visitors inside the King’s Centre, but please be aware that they are often full during office hours.

These buses stop near King’s Centre, Desborough Road:

WW1, 31S, 32, 32A, 33, 38, 41, 850, 5

… and High Wycombe Bus Station, by the Eden Centre, is a 2-3 minute walk from our front door (0.1 mile, 700 feet).

High Wycombe Train Station is just the other side of town centre, a 15 minute walk away.
