BLESS
Blessed to bless those around us.
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

Wednesday 3 December
That day when evening came, he said to his disciples, “Let us go over to the other side.” Leaving the crowd behind, they took him along, just as he was, in the boat. There were also other boats with him. A furious squall came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped. Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, “Teacher, don’t you care if we drown?” He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!” Then the wind died down and it was completely calm. He said to his disciples, “Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?” 41 They were terrified and asked each other, “Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!” (Mark 4:35-41)
Consider the following:
- What storms are you facing right now? What does it mean to you to know that Jesus is in the boat with you?
- Thank Jesus for his presence, his authority and his power
Let’s pray for our next two Sundays
- For the tangible, life-changing presence of God in our meetings this Sunday, and at Carols at King’s on 14 Dec
- For Ron, who has stepped in to preach this Sunday, and for all those serving, including Rich W and the band leading worship, Rich & Nicola leading the meetings, and all our serving teams
- For Carols at King’s on 14 December – for God’s protection over our amazing carols team
- That we would see many visitors come to carols, and that they would encounter the risen Jesus. For salvation!
Let’s pray for Suzanne Harbour
- Pray in tongues, if you have that gift
- Now thank Jesus for the authority that he has over all sickness, all pain, all disease (the disciples in Mark 4: “Who is this?! Even the wind and waves obey him!”)
- Pray for Suzanne’s total miraculous healing, and that Suzanne, John and their family would experience the supernatural presence and peace and strength of God
Let’s pray for healing miracles across the church
- Prophetic word given to us in March this year: “I see a stepping up in the Holy Spirit – going to see a lot more signs and wonders – the manifest presence of Jesus, and people will be drawn in… I see in your hearts a desire for that, and a desire to just follow what God is saying and doing. I see times of being overtaken in worship, with people suddenly standing and proclaiming, “I can see! I can walk!’ On one hand, you will say, “of course! Jesus is here!” – but it’s also going to blow people away – a new bar will be set in healing and signs and wonders.”
- Lift up to the Lord anyone you know who needs healing today
- Pray that we would see this ‘new bar’ set in healing and signs and wonders
Let’s pray together for revival
- In John’s gospel, John refers to healing miracles as ‘signs’ through which Jesus revealed his glory (John 2:11)
- Let’s pray that as a result of healing miracles, many would believe in him – that we would see revival in the church

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.

- 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.
