Who we are
We are a community of Christians based in Maidstone, Kent and the surrounding areas. We love family, we love our community and we love seeing people meeting Jesus and being made whole. Please take a look around and learn more about us.
We are a family that is always ready to have new members!
At The Vine we believe in everyone working together, with God, to see His kingdom come to Maidstone. All the things we do are run by different groups and teams.
Our mission: To love God, love others and make disciples, to go and grow.
Our calling: To be a God loving, Jesus living, Spirit empowered people, who make disciples as we visibly demonstrate God’s love and power in the world.
Our vision: To see thousands of people transformed by Jesus, added to His church, and joining Him in shaping their communities.
Our statement of faith:
What we do will always come out of what we most deeply hold to be true. Our actions will always follow our strongest beliefs. Therefore knowing what we believe will help paint the backdrop to why we do what we do. If you have any questions then please do get in contact.
Coronavirus Update:
Due to the restrictions upon movement and gathering at this time The Vine is closed for all Sunday worship and weekday gatherings. However we are very much a family who continue to connect with each other through emails, phone calls, online prayer, ministry and worship. In spite of the current crisis, we believe in doing everything we can to remain family and to share the love of God with others.
We therefore remain open online. If you wish to get in touch with us your first point of contact is by email: [email protected] If your need is urgent, you can email this address or telephone 01622 746839, both of which are regularly monitored during office hours.
If you are lonely, feeling isolated or fearful, or you simply want to talk, please call us. If you are looking for prayer or spiritual support please do get in touch. We long to share the love of God with all people, practically and spiritually. If you have any specific needs where you require support, please do call us to see if we can help.
As time goes on we are uploading spiritual inputs and videos for you to watch and worship sessions for you to join in with. You will find these under ‘media’ on the menu.
If you are part of our church email correspondence, you will have already received both emails with news and links to our sermons and worship sessions. If you are having problems with that email us at [email protected] and we can get you connected.
If you are new to The Vine, please email us and we will get in touch.
Bless you.

It is also important to note that our buildings are closed apart from in the cases of necessary administration tasks. The exception to this is our food bank, which is still running to continue support for our local community in this critical time. Our buildings are not available for any bookings, but as government legislation changes we will adjust accordingly. If you have any questions in regards to this please email [email protected].

Thank You, Lord
Your Holy Spirit enfolds me - making me realize I am not alone. Thank You for Your strength, Your wisdom and the comfort of Your presence. Even in the most agonizing times I have the knowledge that You are there, Lord. When all I can do is whisper Your Name, it is enough. You hear. You care. You understand. My praise and adoration, Lord Jesus. Amen.
