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

15 January
TAKE TIME TO COME TO JESUS
At that time Jesus said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do. “All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him. “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Matthew 11:25-30
- What are you feeling weary or burdened by this morning?
- Ask the Spirit for fresh revelation of the Father and Jesus.
SMALL GROUPS & SMALL GROUP LEADERS
Please pray for our Small Groups and leaders
- For lots more sign-ups this week. (We had 272 sign-ups for groups last term… we’d love to see more this term because we believe in small groups!)
- For all our Small Group Leaders and Coaches – that God would bless them, fill them and equip them with everything they need
- That every one of our 35 groups would be a place of power and the presence of God… that we’d see community created, disciples made, leaders equipped, the Spirit break out
ALPHA
Please pray for Alpha, starting next Wednesday
- For more people to sign up this week – particularly men, and those who are genuinely seeking
- For Dawn, who’s heading up Alpha, and our brilliant team of leaders – that God would fill them with his presence, give them wisdom as they lead, and give them love for the people they’re serving
- For the Spirit to be at work in tangible and miraculous ways, bringing revelation of Jesus that leads to salvation, freedom and transformed lives
SUNDAY MEETINGS
Please pray for this Sunday’s meetings
- For the tangible presence, power, joy and peace of God as we meet – the sick healed, the lost saved
- For Stuart, who’s preaching, as we continue our ‘Beautiful Attitudes’ series
- For all those serving this Sunday, including Adam and the band leading worship, Ayodeji and Elizabeth leading the meetings, and all our amazing serving teams
PRAY FOR THE SPIRIT TO FILL OUR CHURCH
Heirs don’t ‘earn’, they receive. Imagine… what if we really got hold of who we are as Spirit-filled Sons and Daughters? How would that change our worship, our fellowship, our outreach?
Romans 8:14-17
- Pray for a life-changing move of the Spirit in our church family… that where there’s pride, offence, control, performance… the Spirit would bring revelation of sonship.
- For our Encounter evening tonight – that the Spirit would show up in remarkable ways – and that this would be a year of increasing revelation of Sonship for our whole church family.
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.
Thursday 15 December | 8-9pm | King’s Church
