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 2 September
Reflection
Begin by praising and thanking God using Psalm 100: 1-5:
Shout for joy to the Lord, everyone on earth. Worship the Lord with gladness. Come to him with songs of joy. Know that the Lord is God. He made us, and we belong to him. We are his people. We are the sheep belonging to his flock. Give thanks as you enter the gates of his temple. Give praise as you enter its courtyards. Give thanks to him and praise his name. The Lord is good. His faithful love continues forever. It will last for all time to come.
Praying for Sunday Morning

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.
Thursday 15 December | 8-9pm | King’s Church
