We had a brilliant weekend celebrating 25 years at 74-80 Union Street and 144 years in Maidstone! Thank you to everyone who celebrated with us and contributed to a wonderful weekend.

"Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, who share in the heavenly calling, fix your thoughts on Jesus, whom we acknowledge as our apostle and high priest... For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything. “Moses was faithful as a servant in all God’s house,” bearing witness to what would be spoken by God in the future. But Christ is faithful as the Son over God’s house. And we are his house, if indeed we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope in which we glory.

So, as the Holy Spirit says:
“Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts..." (Hebrews 3:1-8a)

Cancelled: Paddleboarding Church

Due to the presence of blue-green algae in Mote Park Lake, Paddleboarding Church has been cancelled today. Although the lake has improved visually in recent days, testing is not due until Wednesday and so the advice to not enter the water remains.

Please pass on the message to anyone who may have been planning to attend. Thank you.
