Puppet People

The puppets with their people

Today seven people from our church had a fantastic time at a puppet workshop that was run by One Way UK Creative Ministries who had travelled from Grimsby to Wisbech to run the event. They were joined by others who had travelled from Market Harborough, Bury St. Edmonds and Huntingdon as well as a few other locally based people.

The Band at Engage Worship Conference

Yesterday (Saturday) seven of our church band members went along to the Engage Worship Day that was help in Luton. It was a fabulous time of engaging with God in different ways which we are not quite familiar with at our church - this opened up a lot of discussion as well as helped those who attended to see worship from a different perspective and to see God from different perspectives. You may begin to see some of the ideas gained from the conference begin to emerge within our church services at The King's Church, Wisbech - as they may help you to engage with God too!

Dedication of Katrina

Last Sunday saw a joyous celebration where the church family as well as relatives of Matt and Verity came together to give thanks for the life of Katrina and to dedicate her to God. Matt and Verity made some promises as declared that they would bring Katrina up in a home that will help her to get to know God. The church and relatives also promised to support them in their work and to help Katrina along her journey of discovering who Jesus is.

The service was followed by a wonderful bring-and-share meal.

Week of Prayer for Christian Unity celebrated in Wisbech

Representatives from various churches in Wisbech at the service

The evening of Sunday 18^th January 2015 saw a joyous event take place in the Queen Mary Centre, Wisbech. The evening saw representatives and members from a wide variety of Christian church denominations and expressions gather together to celebrate their diversity and to pray for Christian unity in the town as well as in the wider world. Representatives from each church had the space to present something that represented their particular expression of the Christian faith which served as a meaningful contribution to the other collective elements of the service. The Salvation Army brass band played the hymn ‘Glorious Things of Thee are Spoken’ while The King’s Church band played a selection of more contemporary songs including a piece especially written for the event by Worship Leader, Matt McChlery. The whole event was a positive demonstration of Christian unity and solidarity in the town and was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Clive Butcher, Elder of The King’s Church Wisbech said: 'A good expression of the unity that comes through our Christian faith - even though expressed in diverse ways around the churches'

Churches that were present included: The Church of England, United Reformed, Trinity Methodist, Wisbech Baptist Church, The Quakers, The Salvation Army, The Roman Catholic Church and was hosted by The King’s Church, Wisbech under the banner of the Wisbech Churches Together organisation. Keith Aplin, Chairperson of Churches Together in Wisbech said:‘I thank Clive and the King's Church Team plus all who took part for a lively and very moving WPCU Service Yesterday. It was great to see so many there and to enjoy worship and Fellowship.’
