Vision That we may present eve
Here are some recommended books to help you grow in your discipleship written by people within our church or who have close relationship with us.


All Things New: Stories of transformed lives Matt McChlery		The Wilderness Manifesto: Restoring the Offer of Eden - five reflections for Lent Hugh Osgood
All lives are unique. So varied and so diverse, there is not one life the same as another. Jesus knows this - that is why He meets us in different ways. All Things New: Stories of Transformed Lives is packed full of stories featuring the real life experiences of several people. This book invites you to discover how they came to meet Jesus for themselves in a variety of ways. It explores why we all need Jesus in our lives as well as how you can find Him for yourself.		The forty days of Lent leading up to Easter provide us with time for reflection. The Wilderness Manifesto gives us the opportunity to use the five weeks of Lent to strengthen our faith by viewing the wilderness temptations of Jesus as an announcement of God’s eternally-held plan to restore the offer of Eden.

Standing in the Storm: Living with faith and cancer Matt McChlery		Fulfilling Your Ministry Hugh Osgood
‘In the darkest part of my life, in the middle of the mess and suffering, Jesus was there, holding my hand and giving me the strength I needed to simply stand in the storm’ In 2016, Matt McChlery and his wife experienced the loss of an unborn child and the discovery that he had life-threatening cancer – Stage Four non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Confronted by such darkness and a brutal treatment programme, Matt found himself wrestling with faith and the God he thought he knew. Grounded, honest and vulnerable, this deeply personal, award-winning book shares how Jesus was the rock that held fast throughout, and how, on the other side of the storm, His hope shone more brightly than ever. Find the comfort, hope and inspiration you need to keep standing in the storm, whatever you face.		God has a ministry He wants you to fulfil, whatever your galling may be. And fulfilling this call to ministry is a cast topic speaking not only to our role within our churches; but in our families, friendships, workplaces and neighbourhoods as well. The Apostle Paul didn’t just minister, he inspired those alongside him to minister too. In this book, High Osgood shows how we can learn from three of Paul’s ministry companions - Tychicus, Epaphras, and Archippus. Each of these is mentioned in the closing verses of Paul’s letter to the Colossians and they carry lessons that we can grasp and apply today.

The Prison Letters: A 40-day devotional for Lent Matt McChlery		Is Kindness Killing the Church? Hugh Osgood
Paul’s third missionary journey ended in Jerusalem, where he encountered an angry and violent mob who almost killed him. His life was saved by some Roman soldiers who arrested him and he ultimately ended up in prison in Rome where he awaited trial as a Roman citizen. His imprisonment lasted two years, with his life hanging in the balance. During this time, Paul wrote a number of letters to his friends and churches he had planted that are packed full of practical and spiritual advice for Christian living that we can still learn from today. ‘The Prison Letters’ will take you on a thematic 40-day journey through the books of Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, and Philemon. Packed full of personal anecdotes and wisdom, the message Paul conveyed to his readers during his imprisonment is brought to life. Are you ready to tear open the envelopes and unfold the pages of these powerful letters? As you do, you will discover how you can live for Jesus in a more real and intimate way.		The Church was never designed to be held together with polite optimism. Could a greater biblical awareness help us uncover the true, robust unity Jesus spoke of? After serving for two terms as a President of Churches Together in England and speaking for churches across the inter-church spectrum, Hugh Osgood now brings a timely message for today. In this book, we explore the experiences of the first-century Church and imagine seven letters written to our congregations from the leaders of the churches in Revelation. If we respond to these words in humility and boldness, the Church today could be engaging afresh and standing together - not in polite kindness, but in true unity.

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 every fortnight on a Saturday evening in the Queen Mary Centre and is for Children who are going to Senior School (aged 11-18).

During a Sunday morning meeting, the youth are encouraged to engage in the main meeting.

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.
