JOIN A SERVE TEAM
Serving is one of the joys of belonging in church family! Everything that happens at KXC is possible only because of our amazing teams of volunteers who choose to love and serve our community.
We’d love to invite you to use your gifts and passions to play your part. It’s a brilliant way to grow and make friends along the way too! There's a huge variety of KXC Serve teams you can join, including on Sundays and during the week in the local community.
SUNDAY TEAMS
Our Sunday teams help create an atmosphere where people of all ages feel welcomed and able to meet with God. Generally, team members will serve on a rota once a month. We’ll try and match you up with the service you attend as much as possible!
HOST & CAFE
Our Host Team welcomes people and helps them connect, and the Cafe team serves hot drinks and snacks. At our 5pm service, we have a Post-Host Team to help people get to the Big Chill to join us for a drink.
SETUP & PACK DOWN
Help with the hands-on part of creating a welcoming space, like setting up chairs, equipment and signage. There’s Setup before the 9:30am service and Pack Down after the 3pm service.
PRODUCTION
Our Production Team enables everyone who joins us (both in-person and online) to hear, see, and be a part of what is happening. This includes our Sound, Visuals, and Livestream teams.
WORSHIP
The KXC worship team leads us in our collective expression of adoration, prayer and praise to God. One of the key ways we do this is through sung worship. We’re particularly looking for experienced electric guitar and bass players.
KIDS
Our Kids Team creates a fun, safe, and engaging environment where children can learn about God's love. We facilitate interactive lessons, lead worship, do fun crafts and build meaningful connections with the kids.
YOUTH
The Youth Team serves our 11-18s at KXC through things like Monday Football, Tuesday Girls Bible Study, Wednesday Night Youth, Sundays, wider gatherings and mentoring.
COMMUNITY & OUTREACH
We want to reflect the love of Jesus in our local community. We do this by partnering with organisations or running initiatives that serve and love our neighbours, getting to know them and investing in their well-being. Most of our teams run on a monthly rota.
KING’S HOUSE CAFE
King’s House cafe is open throughout the week for those in the community. Volunteers prepare and serve hot drinks, chat with people coming into the space, offer prayer, and create a welcoming atmosphere.
