We look forward to welcoming you to church.

10.30am Family Church

A family-friendly, relaxed and accessible worship gathering. You can expect contemporary Christian worship songs, prayers, bible readings and teaching from scripture.
Free tea and coffee are served after the meeting.

10.45am Children's Sunday School

This runs concurrently to Family Church. Children begin in the main meeting with their carers before we pray for them and send them to their kids groups.
At Buckingham Salvation Army, our Sunday School is based on the principles of Godly Play.  Children can expect caring and attentive engagement with out expert children's workers, a thoughtfully presented story or lesson, and plenty of time to get hands-on exploring the story through craft, play, games and more.

We are a relaxed and friendly worshiping community and understand, embrace and celebrate the creative chaos that family life entails.  In our worship meetings you can expect to find lots of laughter, fun, and noise alongside a real and authentic desire to draw close to Jesus and encounter his presence.

The music we use usually comprises contemporary Christian worship music, with a smattering of hymns and old Salvation Army fight songs, led by acoustic guitar (and often accompanied by toddlers on tambourines).  Song words are displayed on flat screen TVs at the front of the hall.

A collection is taken to support the work of the Corps (visitors should not feel obliged to give), and often participants are invited to offer spoken or unspoken prayers, share their God-stories, or particpate in other ways.

Our teaching time, while sometimes including formal preaching, usually entails a conversation together exploring a Bible passage.  We often discuss four key questions as we look at the chosen Bible passage: What does this tell us about God? What does this tell us about people?  Is there a command to obey?  Is there a promise to claim?

Like any family, our church family enjoys taking time to eat together, and usually Sunday Meetings are accompanied by food.

Little Stars (Parents and Toddlers Group)

Wednesdays 11.00am - 12.30pm

A toddler group with a relaxed and chilled atmosphere. If other toddler groups are too noisy or busy, Little Stars might be more accessible for you.  There are toys, snacks, crafts, tea and coffee for parents, and warm friendly staff who help build a supporting community.

£1 per family for the session. For more information check out our facebook page, or phone 07849 419 202.

Mondays to Fridays

9.00 - 9.30am Morning Prayers - Start the day with God

We spend time each morning in prayer together over coffee and tea, based on Celtic Daily Prayer.

*During school holidays Morning Prayers may not run on certain days - outside of term time, please check in advance.

Sometimes life doesn’t go as planned, and people find themselves in situations they didn’t choose.  The Salvation Army works to help those who fall through the cracks.

In Buckingham, The Salvation Army’s Community Care Ministries comes alongside families and individuals who are vulnerable or at risk of homelessness, and works one-to-one with them as they get back on their feet.  This goes beyond merely handing out food or providing a bed – we journey with people in the long term as they find their freedom.

If you need support, we're here to help.

For more information email stephen.townsend@salvationarmy.org.uk or phone 07770 380 717.
