Our members are from all backgrounds and walks of life, and we respect and celebrate our differences. We reach out and offer the hand of friendship, support and understanding to all who attend our church. We give a warm welcome to all friends, old and new and join together in fellowship to share the Good News with each other.
Our Services are a mixture of prayer, sermons, reflection and hymns (from Rejoice and Sing) led by our Minister, members of the congregation and visiting ministers and lay preachers, who are friends of the church.
Our communion table is open all.
Brief History
Standing near the corner of four main roads, Wembley Park United Reformed church opens its doors to any one who wants to worship in the house of God. Built on land that was once known as Padfield’s Farm, our church building went through several reincarnations before becoming what it is today.
At the formation of the church, it was known as the “North Wembley Free Church (Congregational)” but early in 1931 it was felt that this name would be discourteous to the Methodist Church in North Wembley and so the name was changed to “Wembley Park Free Church”
1930 : The Church was officially opened as the Wembley Park Free Church (Congregational) on 18th October. The first ever service was lead by Rev. Charter Piggott. The following Sunday morning service was attended by 150 people and the evening service by 275. A young people’s service was also held in the afternoon. The Buildings Committee, Sunday School, Choir and the Women’s League were set up in the days that followed.
On Sunday 7th December of that year the new church was formally constituted.
1958: The Kingsland Hall was opened formally on 27th September.
1972: On 5th October the Congregational and Presbyterian Churches united to form the United Reformed Church.
