Our Story

How it all started

Kings Church Wokingham and Binfield came into being during the 1980s as one of the off-shoots of Kings Church Reading, a growing independent, charismatic, evangelical church. Several new churches were planted out in the local area due to the significant growth that was taking place.
The Wokingham and Binfield churches merged in 1997 and became Kings Church Wokingham, based in the Youth and Community Centre in Wokingham.
Times changed and in 2020 the Wokingham church divided, each group going their separate way, resulting in two smaller congregations.
In May 2023 our interim leader, John Hicklin stood down and Christen Forster replaced him, becoming our permanent leader in May 2024. He brings vitality, fresh insights and rich experience from his background in Ichthus.
