6th September 2026
Welcome to St Barnabas in this autumn season, especially if you are visiting or here for the first time! Please introduce yourself to our host team so we can welcome you personally..
This Sunday we launch a new sermon series ‘Called into community: the church through the eyes of Jesus’, exploring how the call of Jesus draws his disciples to be shaped together by the radical values of God’s kingdom. In today’s world where factions and interest groups abound, and with it much pain and rejection, it is truly Good News that God calls us to learn together a different way marked by belonging and love.

NOTICES
STBK Children's Groups: Welcome Back!
We are excited to return after the summer break starting back this Sunday at our 10:30am service. We will share as a church family in a time of worship and prayer for the new academic year before heading out to be 'lit up' in exploring Matthew 5:14-16 'let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.' All groups will join together for a 'Welcome Back' brunch party too!
We are also excited to share that we are opening a 0-2 children's room on the first and fourth Sunday of the month. If you are a parent with a 0-2 year old, please follow the fun downstairs this Sunday, 6th September to join in with a time of songs, play and prayer with your little ones. We also hope to be able to show the live-stream of the service so that you can follow this too.
Youth
We are back with our activities at the youth ministry every Sunday at 10:30 am. Spread the news with a youth.

Join the Global Week of Prayer — September 6–13
This September, we're joining churches in over 140 nations for the 24-7 Prayer movement's Global Week of Prayer, themed "At the Name of Jesus" (Philippians 2:9–11). It's a chance to anchor ourselves in prayer as we start this new season, widen our prayer beyond our own walls, and unite with believers around the world.
The week kicks off on Sunday, September 6, with prayer during our service, followed by daily opportunities throughout the week for groups to pray together — at home, online, or in person. On Friday, September 11, we'll gather for a Half Night of Prayer and Fasting (7:00–10:00pm, Howard Hall), hosted by the Prayer Ministry Team, with a family-friendly prayer space earlier that evening (5:00–6:30pm, Mark Thomas Room).
The young adults will also be holding a prayer meeting over whatsapp on Wednesday 9th September at 7pm, for more information email mariane@stbk.org.uk
Everyone is warmly invited — whichever way you'd like to take part.

JAZZIFIED
What happens when West End performers and Jazz musicians walk into a church?
You get JAZZIFIED - an evening of musical theatre reimagined through jazz, soul, RnB and funk. Expect bold new arrangements of beloved songs whilst falling in love with original music from some of London's most exciting performers and musicians.
The Gathering
On Sunday, the 13th of September, we are going to hike at Seven Sisters. If you are between 18 and 30 years old, join us. Pray for this day. More info: mariane@stbk.org.uk
In the Autumn
We are excited to be launching a new evening service, the 5pm, from October. This service will be marked by its relaxed atmosphere, its focus on worship and practical teaching, and the opportunity it will give to explore deeper through overflow groups that will follow the service. More details will come in September. But let’s already pray that God will use this service to bring his Good News to new people, and help us to deepen our faith as a community together. Please pray too for the practical preparations and for the core team that will be helping lead this service.
At St Barnabas, we are a vibrant and diverse community, passionate about
WELCOMING all in Jesus’ name, GROWING TOGETHER as his disciples,
and STEPPING OUT in God’s mission to all nations.
