KXC
KXC was planted out of St Mary’s Bryanston Square on the 14th February 2010. Commissioned by the Bishop of London, Pete and Bee Hughes were sent out from St Mary’s with a small group of leaders and a simple vision: to recklessly give themselves away to God, each other and the people of King’s Cross and beyond. Without a permanent place to call home, KXC began renting space for Sunday gatherings from the Lumen United Reform Church, and later from the Ethiopian Church on Pentonville Road, whilst meeting together midweek in homes and pubs, and wherever else we could find space around King’s Cross. Over time, things have gradually grown: the kids work has developed as parents have been ‘bearing fruit and multiplying’; we’ve welcomed in new students and graduates arriving in London; we’ve welcomed people that had given up on God and church but have since rediscovered faith and community; and we’ve welcomed people who have no faith in Jesus, but just enjoy coming along. Some of those have since found faith in Jesus, others haven’t, but wherever people have come from, it’s been a privilege to welcome them into the community and to all that God is doing in and through the church.
