Celebration Church Maidstone

This Easter Sunday, come and hear the greatest news the world has ever known: Jesus is alive.

Easter is more than a tradition. It is the story of hope for the hopeless, forgiveness for the broken, and new life for all who will come to Him. Because Jesus rose from the dead, no one is beyond His love, His grace, or His power to save.

Whether you’ve never been to church before or it’s been a long time, you are so welcome. Come and discover the hope we have in Christ.

“He is not here, for He has risen, as He said.” — Matthew 28:6

📍 Celebration Church@The Vine, Boughton Lane, Maidstone, ME15 9QF

Free World Book Day costumes!

A helpful tip for local parents - Maidstone Libraries have been collecting fancy dress costumes to give away for use this World Book Day (5th March). These were in Shepway Library yesterday, a great little selection! Worth checking out if homemade costumes aren't your area of expertise!
You can also still donate your own used costumes for another family 😍

We are excited to host our first Break Room session from our new venue this afternoon!
Come and find us at The Rosemary Graham Centre (Somner Walk, Park Wood - where the Community Larder used to be for anyone who knows!)

We'll be there from 12.30-2.30 with tea, coffee, biscuits, and friendly faces ready to welcome you in for a chat!
We have met some absolutely lovely local folks through The Break Room whilst hosting the sessions at Christ Church, and we hope to get to know many more of our neighbours at this new space. See you there!

Just a reminder to Stay & Play families that we will no longer be holding sessions on Mondays - so please don't go along to Christ Church hoping to find us today! We will be there on Thursday as usual ☺️

In the meantime, Celebrate Juniors will be there tomorrow after school. If you have a child in years 3-6 at Leigh Academy Tree Tops and would like to find out more about this free weekly club, pop us a message! 🥰

News for our Stay & Play families - from 1st February we will only be running sessions on Thursdays (not Mondays). But don't worry, you will still experience all the same fun on a Thursday as you are used to; crafts, toys, refreshments and smiley faces!

We are planning some changes to The Break Room which we will also share soon, so stay tuned!

Hope to see lots of you on Thursday afternoon, 2.30-4.30pm, free to all!

We had an amazing time yesterday welcoming 50 children to Celebrate New Year! This continued our 'Christmas at the beach' theme from Celebrate Christmas last week, with both days exploring stories of Jesus spending time with his friends by the sea. Our days included sandcastle building, beach boules, sandy desserts, and a 'shipwrecked' escape room! We thought about how important it is to celebrate Jesus's life even when our days are busy, and how Jesus will be walking through the new year with us and helping us through any storms that come our way.

As always, we want to say an enormous thank you to our amazing volunteers who faithfully serve at these events and make them the best they can be for the children 🤩👏

If you'd like to know more about Celebrate Kids and all the fun we get up to, send us a message!

As we finish up the term we would like to send a huge thank you to everyone who supported our festive fundraisers - the Elf at the Door visits, Hot Chocolate Pop-up, and the wonderful café and gift grotto at Tree Tops Christmas Fayre. We are pleased to have raised almost £500 towards our Celebrate Kids activities in 2026!

We still have one more exciting event in the calendar before the new year - we look forward to welcoming over 60 children to Celebrate Christmas on Monday 22nd December over at the school. If you're not booked in yet and want to come, pop us a message and we will do our best to squeeze you in!

Today will be our LAST hot chocolate pop up of the term! ☕ Come and visit us outside Christ Church from 3pm to grab a delicious cup with all the tasty trimmings! 😋

Thank you to Kent Community Foundation for selecting our photo as a runner up for the Community in Focus competition 📸🎉

We had an amazing time last summer at our paint party and these young junior volunteers shone with heart and passion for the children who attended, throwing themselves into the fun 🥰💖 We love our community!
