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

Reflection:

PSALM 63:1-8
1 You, God, are my God,
earnestly I seek you;
I thirst for you,
my whole being longs for you,
in a dry and parched land
where there is no water.
2 I have seen you in the sanctuary
and beheld your power and your glory.
3 Because your love is better than life,
my lips will glorify you.
4 I will praise you as long as I live,
and in your name I will lift up my hands.
5 I will be fully satisfied as with the richest of foods;
with singing lips my mouth will praise you.
6 On my bed I remember you;
I think of you through the watches of the night.
7 Because you are my help,
I sing in the shadow of your wings.
8 I cling to you;
your right hand upholds me.

Response to Devotional Reading:

 What is your soul truly thirsting for, and where have you been trying to satisfy that thirst apart from God?
 Can you honestly say that God’s love is better than life? What would change in your desires, worship and
choices if you lived as though it were?
 What would it look like for you to seek God earnestly and cling to Him in the particular season you are
walking through?

Drawing Near; Receiving His Heart; Seeking Flourishing

 Pray for a deeper hunger for God and a growing intimacy with Him, where His presence becomes
our greatest desire and His love our deepest satisfaction.
 Pray that, as we draw near to God, we would receive His heart and grow in love for the people
and places He has entrusted to us.
 Pray that we would seek the flourishing of King’s Church and High Wycombe, giving ourselves
faithfully to what God desires to do in and through His church for the good of our town, our nation
and the nations.

Prayer for Sunday Service

 Pray for John as he prepares and delivers the God’s Word. We are staring a new preaching
series called Living Water.
 Pray for Seyi & Abi as he leads the service
 Pray for Rich Wainman as he leads worship
 Pray for everyone serving: that we would serve from overflow, not emptiness, with fresh
anointing, joy, and grace for every role.
 Pray for our gatherings as a whole: that we would experience the manifest presence of God.
Salvation, healing, deliverance, and a deep awareness of God’s closeness.

Praying for the Flourishing of King’s Church High Wycombe

 Pray for wisdom, provision and the Lord’s leading as King’s prepares to launch a third meeting
in February 2027; that it would create room for more people to encounter Jesus, find
belonging and grow as disciples.
 Pray for King’s finances: for faithful kingdom generosity, wise stewardship and sufficient
provision for everything God is calling us to do.
 Pray for wisdom and clarity concerning the growth and expansion of King’s, including whether
to secure a new building or redesign the current one; that the right provision and opportunities
would come at the right time.
 Pray that God would establish the work of the hands of every member of our church family,
causing them to flourish and bear fruit that blesses others and advances His purposes.

Closing

Spontaneous prayer of thanksgiving to close – Joyful noise!
Let’s lift a final prayer of thanksgiving — not because everything is resolved, but because God is near,
and He hears us

Parking near King’s Centre:

  • We wish we could offer parking at King’s Centre to everyone, but we can’t… there are a few bays directly outside the building, but these should be requested in advance by those with mobility needs, or left for staff use only.
  • Desborough Square Car Park, and East Richardson Street Car Park opposite it, are the nearest council car parks, a 2 minute walk away and cost £1 to park on Sundays. 
    • The machines on these sites are not always operational, but RingGo (opt out of texts to avoid extra 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.
