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 13 May
This morning we’ll be focusing on praying for Sunday morning but also going to take time to pray for our mission partners – Dan & Monica, King’s Church Kathmandu and our Social Action & Outreach Projects in High Wycombe.
Before we pray, let’s focus on Jesus, the author and perfector of our faith, and through whom all things are possible.
Psalm 55: 1-3
Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord. Let us give a loud shout to the Rock who saves us.
Let us come to him and give him thanks. Let us praise him with music and song. The Lord is the great God. He is the greatest King. He rules over all the gods.
- Let’s come to Jesus with, as Psalm says, thanks, praise and joy. You could even shout, as the Psalm says!
- Our Lord is King – the one true God – so spend time giving Him the praise and worship he’s due.
Praying for Sunday Morning
- Seyi & Ida are leading the meetings, Adam will be leading worship, and Rich Horne will be continuing the Life to the Full series & speaking on A Life of Generosity.
- And Worship for Everyone + King’s Kids Family.
- Pray for Exploring Baptism, which will be taking place during the 11am meeting.
Mission Partners
KCK
Pray for:
- KCK Leadership: Wisdom, love, protection, and unity among leaders.
- KCK Members: Good health, spiritual growth, hunger for God’s Word, and deeper trust in Him.
- Provision: For church building loan settlement and to provide more Bibles & audio resources for believers.
- Religious Freedom: Protection for minority believers; no discrimination based on faith.
- Dolpa Childrens’ Home: Protection, provision, and growth for every child at the home.
Dan & Monica
Prayer Requests:-
- For God’s provision for their material needs.
- For the app Dan helped make to enable it to be easier for people across the Gulf to read the New Testament. About to do an ad campaign in another Gulf state – pray it would go well and get the NT into the hands of many locals.
- For Dan supporting / mentoring 3 leaders. Pray for these relationships and for their lives and ministries.
- Monica’s relationships with several open locals; and for her to reconnect with one who believes.
- Peace in the Middle East.
Outreach / Social Action Projects
Pray for Little Stars, King’s Table, Chosen, and Teaching English – all of which have significant cross-cultural elements to them.
Pray for:
- relationships to be built,
- the Gospel shared (eg through Teaching English),
- lives transformed (eg King’s Table),
- people coming into the Kingdom (eg King’s Table coming on Sunday morning)
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.
