Sundays
Join us at 3pm on Sunday afternoons as we gather as a whole church family to sing, pray, and hear the Bible read and taught. We usually run groups for children, and everyone is welcome!
People of all ages, backgrounds, and stages of the Christian journey come together on Sunday afternoons. Our gatherings are warm and relaxed, and we especially love welcoming those who wouldn’t yet call themselves followers of Jesus but are curious to learn more.
Our next Sunday gathering:
Plan Your Visit
It’s safe to say coming to church, maybe for the first time in your life, can seem quite daunting. So we’d love to help you feel relaxed not just at church, but in the lead-up to it too. Here are some things that might be useful to know for your visit to King’s:
Where to Go
We don’t own a traditional church building at King’s, so when we meet together throughout the week to catch up, read the Bible and pray, we do so at a variety of locations.
For our Sunday gatherings and monthly prayer meetings, we meet at: Christ Church Guildford, 23 Waterden Road, Guildford, GU1 2AZ. If there is a venue change, a notice will appear on the website and on our social media.
Located in central Guildford, Christ Church Guildford has a car park and there is parking available on nearby streets. The church is also very close to one of Guildford’s train stations and many bus stops.
When to Arrive
The more formal part of our gathering starts at 3pm (although we might be a few minutes late sometimes!). We ask people to take their seats a minute or so before the start. Do leave enough time in your travel plans to park, as the car park can get quite busy at times.
What to Expect
Before the Service
You will be greeted by one or two of our welcome team at the main door to the church, where they will invite you in and offer you a Bible, paper for notes and a pen if you want those.
During the Service
The service typically lasts between 1 hour and 15 minutes to 1 hour and 30 minutes. You will be led by a member of the church from the front, and they will tell you all that’s going on in the service. We sing a few songs, hear the bible read and taught to us and kids are invited to go to their own groups about 15 minutes into the service. If it’s their first time, the parents will need to fill in a registration form.
After the Service
Our more formal meeting might have ended, but our gathering still continues! Enjoy tea, coffee and biscuits in the hall next door. If you don’t need to rush off, we’d love to chat to you more over refreshments.

Equip Extra offers a chance to explore topics not usually covered in our Sunday gatherings, making it a great way to learn more about different aspects of the Christian faith.
Open to anyone of any age or stage, it’s for those interested in thinking about the topic on offer and able to attend. Each 60-minute interactive seminar is preceded by a meal, with no pre-reading or prior knowledge needed, and no pressure to contribute.
It takes place most weeks during term time after refreshments at our Sunday gatherings. The next session is on:
