Sacred Space Kingston is the collective vision of a number of local people. We have come together to show through the arts, community and the re-imagining of ancient spiritual practices an alternative way to live, one modelling Jesus. We have been going for a decade and are officially a Fresh Expression of Church in Southwark Diocese.

Gatherings

Sacred Space, Kingston marks the Celtic wheel of the year, including summer and winter solstices, with spiritual reflections and reframed ancient rituals. We have community meals where we share food, friendship and our creativity with one another. We will be hosting a regular, weekly silent meditation on Thursdays at 5.30-6pm in All Saints Church, Kingston Marketplace, from Thursday 28th September 2023. Using a well-known method of meditation attributed to John Main, each participant will choose their own sacred word or phrase to focus on during the silence. Everyone is welcome, no matter what their beliefs or whether they adhere to a particular faith tradition or none at all.

Mind, Body, Spirit

We recognise the importance of well-being for body, mind and spirit and seek to engage all these aspects of our personhood when we encounter the divine. This we do through embodied prayer, mindfulness meditations and honest conversation about our doubts, struggles and questions. We believe in a life-long journey of faith, discovery and growth through relationship with God, mutual respect for one another and an appreciation of all creation.

Community Engagement

We are welcoming and inclusive journeying with spiritual seekers and finding opportunities to bring our imaginative contemplation to other local groups and faith communities. A member of Sacred Space Kingston initiated the Kingston Town Centre Chaplaincy Service and we have participated at community events such as the Surbiton Festival and Coronation by providing craft activities on a spiritual theme.
