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

REFLECTION
John 6:16-21
When evening came, his disciples went down to the lake, where they got into a boat and set off across the lake for Capernaum. By now it was dark, and Jesus had not yet joined them. A strong wind was blowing and the waters grew rough. When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus approaching the boat, walking on the water; and they were frightened. But he said to them, “It is I; don’t be afraid.” Then they were willing to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat reached the shore where they were heading.
Today’s Prayer Points:
1) The fostering and adoption group
Pray:
· For Ian, Lucy and Jen who are leading this group – for wisdom to know how to lead the group forwards.
· For good connections with other churches in Wycombe and those organisations working with families who are fostering and adopting.
· For a fruitful working relationship with Home for Good/Safer Families.
· That the Lord would draw those families in Wycombe who need this support, and that he would use this group to provide genuine connection and friendship for them.
· For the Lord’s blessing and provision for all families who are fostering or adopting in the town.
2) The Sozo team
Pray:
· For the team being trained – for confidence and anointing from the Lord.
· For more men to join the team.
· For godly wisdom as we implement Sozo ministry here at King’s.
· That the Lord would set people wonderfully free through this ministry.
· That, as a church, we would be people who pursue the freedom that God has for us, even when it’s uncomfortable.
3) Sunday morning
Pray for:
· Steve Lamb and the band leading worship, and Ruth & Rich Wainman leading the meeting
· John speaking, continuing the ‘Life to the Full’ series, and focusing on holiness.
· That Lord would encounter each person in a personal way.
· All our Sunday serving teams – that they would enjoy community and God’s goodness as they serve.
· God’s protection over us every time we meet.
· Newcomers’ lunch on Sunday afternoon – for good connections & conversations.
4) Our church family
John 6: 21 ‘Then they were willing to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat reached the shore where they were heading.’
What situations are you aware of in our church family where breakthrough is needed? Bring these situations before the Lord, inviting him in, and trusting that he will move.
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.

- 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.
