Whether you are thinking of coming to church for the first time because you are interested in exploring faith, whether you’re new to the area and looking for a church, or whether you’re investigating baptism or marriage, you are really welcome. Our vision is to be “A house of God’s light for all peoples and generations,” and we really hope you’ll get to experience some of that light. You’ll find we have different styles of services that reflect our diverse congregation. Click here to find out which of our services might suit you. When you arrive you should be met by a member of our Welcome Team who will be wearing a Welcome badge. Please do make yourself known to them so that they can let you have a Welcome Pack and, if you like, can introduce you to someone to sit next to in the service. What is there for my children? If you are coming along with children, you might find our 9.30 Family Service most suitable. Most weeks, the children start in the church with their accompanying adult (we really value worshipping God altogether as an inter-generational community.) After around 15 minutes, children go out to their own Sunday groups. More details of these age groups can be found on our Children and Young People page. On the first Sunday of the month, we hold either an All Age or All In service. How do I get to know people in such a big church? While you will get to know some people if you come to a church service, it is often at smaller gatherings which happen during the week that you will get to know people better. Click here to read about the other groups which run during the week and here for activities that go on at the church. How can I get involved? Click here to read about the many ways in which you can get involved in the life of the church. Getting involved is another great way of way of getting to know people. We’d love KPC to be a church where we grow spiritually by contributing. We hope very much that you will like what you taste and soon feel at home in our church. Best wishes, Geoff Lanham, Vicar
