Planning your Visit

New to Church

Green Organic Warm Food and Re

Welcome! Whether you've just moved to the area, or have lived here all your life, we hope our website helps you to find out everything you want to know about our Church. 

Where and When

Our Church meets every Sunday at 10:00am. 

We meet at the Queen Mary Centre in Wisbech (directions here) for our Sunday Services and King's Youth. When you arrive, you should be greeted by someone on our Welcome Team.

Accessibility: There is wheelchair access, and a sound loop for anyone who needs it. Please let one of the Welcome Team know on your arrival and they will help you to get set up. There are disabled toilets just down from the Ladies toilets in the main corridor. The building has no steps throughout and the main entrance has an automatic door. Large print words for songs can be provided if requested in advance.

Our Sunday Morning Service

Our Sunday Morning Service begins at 10am with a warm welcome from one of our team members. Then follows a time of sung worship, led by our band as well as some interactive items related to the biblical theme being explored. Sometimes a person might pray out loud or read a small passage from the bible. Sometimes people share things that they believe God is saying to the whole church family. This might seem strange the first time you hear it but it’s all part of our connecting with God. We then share news and notices, usually about what’s going on in the life of the church. One of our leaders will then give a talk (sermon) that is bible based and that we can apply to our everyday life. After the talk, we have a time of ministry where people can pray for one another, as well as opportunity to chat and get to know each other better with a hot drink and biscuit (we do not charge for refreshments). We then gather together again for about 10 minutes for a final bit of sharing or encouraging each other in our faith and finish with a final song.

What About My Kids?

On Sundays provision is made for children at King's Kids. Children stay with adults for the first part of the Celebration and are encouraged to join in with the songs and interactive parts. Just before the Bible teaching, the children (4-11 years) will be invited to go to an adjoining room for 'King's Kids' that is run by a dedicated and fully DBS checked team of volunteers where they will receive Bible teaching relevant to their age, do some fun games and crafts and sing some songs. They return to their parents and to the Main Hall shortly after the Bible teaching during the Ministry and Refreshments time.

If you would like to accompany your child to King's Kids for the first few times, that is fine. Also, if you do not wish your child to go to King's Kids and to stay with you in the Main Hall, that is also fine.

Is There Anything For Teenagers?

We run a Youth Group called King's Youth. This happens during our Sunday morning service once a month and is for Children who are going to Senior School (aged 11-14). This takes place during the sermon and is a place where the teenagers can have a discussion about a topic from the bible. We find those 15+ are more comfortable remaining in the main meeting with the adults.

We have resources on the tables that include adult colouring in, puzzles and fidget toys for anyone who may find them useful during the meeting (even adults!).

Baby Changing Facilities

Both the Ladies and Gents toilets have baby changing facilities.

Is There A Dress Code?

No! Please just be yourself and come dressed in your 'normal' clothes.

Where Do I Sit?

There is no designated seating. You are able to sit wherever you like.

Parking

There is a large car park right next door to the Queen Mary Centre called Somers Road Car Park. This is a free car park. There are also disabled parking spaces to the side of the Queen Mary Centre building. Get directions here.

Is There An Offering?

Once a month during our Sunday Celebration we make a point of having an offering during the service as part of our expression of worship. On other Sundays you can give by simply placing your offering in the basket on the table by the entrance to the Main Hall. However, our offering is mainly for those who are regular attenders of our church. If you are just visiting, please do not feel that you have to give any money at all.

You can also give online using our safe and secure website.

Getting Connected

 

Small Groups

While Sundays are a great way to meet new people, it is often in smaller gatherings that you can really get to know someone. Being part of one of our small groups allows you to make new friends, share together and support each other. We have a variety of groups that meet throughout the week, some afternoons and some evenings. The groups on offer change from time to time and include interest groups and courses, so please do ask what is available.

Serving and Volunteering

If you want to get involved in the life of the church and help us make Sundays run smoothly, you can sign up to serve on a team. 

Other Ministries

We also run the following ministries:

  • Small Groups & Bible Studies
  • Men's Breakfast
  • King's Kids
