Christmas 2024

written by Chris JOhnston

As the winter evenings draw in, and the dropping temperatures force us to find those elusive coats and scarves, it can only mean one thing: CHRISTMAS is coming!! 🎄

Amidst all of the fun festivities that we can look forward to enjoying, at King’s Community Church we love the opportunity that Christmas affords us; to reach out and invite our friends, families and neighbours to come and join with us as we celebrate the good news of Jesus.
Think for a moment of those whom God has put on your heart to come to know him. What is it, above all else, that they need this Christmas? More so than just a feel-good time, a stocking-filler present, or nostalgic traditions, it is the life-transforming message of a baby King, the Son of God, born to redeem and restore the whole of creation that our friends across the Solent need to hear this Christmas.

So, as we meet together through our Christmas programme, we will come with expectancy and faith to encounter God in worship, to hear the truth and power of the Word of God as we open the bible together, and to see Jesus take centre stage every time we gather.

22nd Dec – Christmas at King’s Community Church Hedge End.

10:00-11:00 / 18:00-19:00

You are invited to join us this Christmas to encounter Jesus! We will be celebrating Christmas together through singing carols,worship songs and hearing the Christmas message. We have two different times for you to join us, either at 10:00 where our Kids (Pre-school & Primary Age) will be having a Christmas party in their own age groups at the same time, or come at 18:00 for the evening and stay for hot drinks and mince pies after. Please note there will be no Kids work at the 18:00 meeting. 
 
All welcome, and please invite your friends, neighbours and family.
