Thy Kingdom Come

Thy Kingdom Come (TKC) is a global ecumenical prayer movement which starts Thursday 14th May. TKC invites Christians around the world to pray from Ascension to Pentecost for more people to come to know Jesus.

On Thursday 14th May (Ascension Day) at 7.00pm, there is an informal interactive service with communion to celebrate Ascension and launch the 10 days of prayer of ‘Thy Kingdom Come’

During the 10 day period, the Garden Room at Church will be available for prayer. Thy Kingdom Come booklets are available in church.

Further details can be found on our website at https://stcatherines-tilehurst.org.uk/tkc/

St Cat’s Lite – Saturday 2nd May

Our next ‘St Cat’s Lite’ service is Saturday 2nd May, at it’s normal time of 3:30pm.

We’re continuing our series of themes called “Meals with Jesus”. This month it’s ‘Breakfast on the Beach’.

Everybody is welcome.

St Cat’s Lite is a fun, informal, all-age service which usually meets on the first Saturday of the month. While open to anyone of any age, it’s especially popular with children & families.

We start with different craft activities that help us think about the theme. We continue exploring the theme through songs, stories and prayer. We finish with refreshments.

Everyone is very welcome at this or any of our activities.

Worship 24/7 Reading Worship Evening on Friday 1st May ’26

Worship 24/7 is a gathering together of people who love worship and prayer – both sung worship and spoken prayers as well as other creative expressions of worship and prayer.  In Reading this brings together people from churches across Reading.  They meet on the first Friday of each month – in different churches – to spend an evening together worshiping God. 

St Catherine’s will be hosting the next evening on Friday the 1st of May – from 6:30pm to 9:30pm.  The worship will be led by teams of musicians put together from churches across Reading. The style of worship is often more contemporary. The format is informal. There will be music, worship, creative arts, and prayer in the main sanctuary.

Anyone and everyone is welcome for some or all of the evening.  The format is very informal.  

Everyone is welcome to join together with Christians from across Reading to worship Jesus.
