Believer's Baptisms in July

Black and Green Soccer Blog He

It was a joyous occasion yesterday when we celebrated the baptism of four people in our Sunday morning service.

Paulina, Izabela, Aneliya and Martika each shared some of the stories of their lives and what had led them to their decisions to be baptised in water. Each declared their faith in Jesus and were then baptised in water by full immersion.

After each baptism, people from the gathering came forward to share Bible verses and prophetic words. Time was also take to pray for each person.

It was a fabulous morning and we hope to be baptising more people as they choose to publicly declare their commitment to Jesus through believer's water baptism.

What is water baptism?

The first step of becoming a believer and follower of Jesus is to enter into a relationship with Him (otherwise known as becoming ‘saved’ from your wrongdoing or sin). This is a simple process and if you have not yet asked Jesus to be in charge of your life, to live your life with Jesus as your friend you can do so today! Please speak to a Deacon or Overseer who can help explain a few things about it and help you. If you are at this stage in your journey of faith, it would be very helpful for you to attend one of our Christianity Explored courses.

We recognise water baptism as being part of the salvation process which happens after the first step of committing your life to Jesus.

Water baptism is a symbolic act that a Christian takes part in as a public sign of their belief in Jesus. It involves the person being totally submerged underneath the water. A declaration of faith in Jesus is made by the person being baptised and prayers are said.

Full submersion imitates the baptism Jesus received by John the Baptist in The Bible and the symbolism is powerful and poignant. As we die to our old pre-Jesus selves we are buried underneath the water. Then we rise up again into a new life in Jesus, having our sins washed away both inside out!

“Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.”
Mark 16:16

“Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.”
Acts 2:38

One thing to point out is that it is never too late! If you have decided to live your life in a relationship with Jesus, you should be baptised.

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.
