One church, two locations — we’re expanding to make more room for people to encounter Jesus.
From the very beginning, our church has been built on faith — stepping out, trusting God, and believing that He can do more than we could ever ask or imagine.
For 46 years, we’ve seen that truth play out again and again. We’ve seen lives changed, families restored, and people from every background find hope in Jesus.
And now, as our city continues to grow and change, we believe God is calling us to take another bold step of faith — one that will stretch us, challenge us, and open new doors for more people to encounter His love.
We’re stepping into a brand-new chapter in our story:
On Easter Sunday 2026, we will launch our new venue — Venture Church Kents Hill.
A Growing City, A Growing Mission
Milton Keynes is expanding rapidly. New neighbourhoods are being built, new schools are opening, and thousands of families are moving into this incredible city every year.
As a church, we’ve been praying for years about how to make more space for people to experience Jesus. Our mission — to bring people to Jesus and equip them to live courageously as fully devoted followers of Christ — isn’t just for Oldbrook. It’s for the whole of Milton Keynes and beyond.
We believe that as the city grows, the mission grows too.
Every new home represents a story waiting to be written, a family waiting to be reached, and a life waiting to be changed.
That’s why we’re taking this step of faith to launch Venture Church Kents Hill — not because it’s easy, but because it’s right. Because we believe God is leading us to do it.
Why Kents Hill?
Kents Hill is a vibrant and accessible community in the heart of Milton Keynes, surrounded by growing residential areas and excellent transport links. It’s a location that will allow us to reach new people and serve existing families who already live closer to that side of the city.
The venue itself is a fantastic space with huge potential for ministry and community.
It includes:
- A main auditorium that seats around 200 people — perfect for worship gatherings, community events, and times of prayer and teaching.
- A Venture Kids area — space for our children to grow in faith, build friendships, and learn about Jesus in a fun and engaging environment.
- A welcoming foyer and guest lounge — a place where conversations happen, friendships begin, and people find family.
- Plenty of nearby parking — ensuring a smooth experience for new guests and families attending services.
But beyond the bricks and mortar, this venue represents something far more significant — a new opportunity for life-change.
One Church, Two Locations
We’re not starting a new church. We’re multiplying what God is already doing.
From the start, the vision has always been one church with one mission, expressed in multiple locations across our city.
Venture Church Kents Hill will carry the same DNA, culture, and message as Venture Church Oldbrook — the same worship, the same teaching, the same heartbeat for people to meet Jesus.
Our dream is to see both locations working together in unity — sharing teams, resources, stories, and momentum.
Every person, every volunteer, and every prayer will be part of something much bigger than one building or one postcode.
This is what we mean when we say “one church, two locations.”
It’s not just about geography — it’s about multiplication. It’s about reaching further so that more people can find hope in Jesus.
Why Now?
This step of faith isn’t just about expansion — it’s about obedience.
Over the last few years, we’ve seen God’s favour and growth in incredible ways. Our services are full, new families are joining, and lives are being transformed week after week.
We’ve been praying for wisdom about what’s next — and time and again, God has reminded us that the harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.
There are more people to reach. More families to serve. More hearts ready to respond to the gospel.
And so, like Abraham, Moses, and Joshua, we believe God is calling us to venture out once again — to step into new territory with faith, courage, and expectation.
What This Means for You
Launching a new venue is a family effort. It’s going to take all of us — praying, serving, giving, and believing together.
In the coming months, we’ll be building volunteer teams, preparing the venue, and training leaders who will help make this vision a reality.
There will be opportunities to get involved in every area — from worship and kids ministry to production, hospitality, and logistics. Whether you’ve been part of the church for decades or you’re new to the family, there’s a place for you to play a part.
We’ll be sharing regular updates and practical next steps along the way, so everyone can stay connected to what’s happening and how to help.
Looking Ahead
The journey to Kents Hill isn’t just about another Sunday service location — it’s about creating more room for God to move.
Every chair, every conversation, every child welcomed into Venture Kids represents a new story of grace waiting to unfold.
We believe this is just the beginning of what God is going to do through Venture Church — not only in Oldbrook and Kents Hill, but across our city and beyond.
So let’s keep venturing forward — with faith, with unity, and with the confidence that the God who has led us this far will continue to lead us every step of the way.
Why We’re Becoming Venture Church
After 46 years of ministry in Milton Keynes, we’re stepping into a new name that better reflects who we are and who we’re becoming.
Our Mission Hasn’t Changed
A new name doesn’t mean a new mission. Here’s what still drives everything we do.
