Where does the church meet?
Christ the King meets at the beautiful, and recently restored and renovated, historic “Old Gym” in the downtown Midlothian.
Worship begins at 10:30 am, and nursery is provided.
The address is:
700 West Avenue H, Midlothian, TX 76065
The easiest access will be from Main Street (accessible either from US 67 or US 287) onto either 2nd, 3rd, or 4th Street. Below is a map indicating where to park, and we will have a number of folks standing outside directing traffic and welcoming you to The Old Gym and pointing you to the entrance, which is easily accessible for those with mobility challenges. We do ask that people save the closest spots–accessible from 3rd St.–for the elderly and those with small children. In case of rain please note the identified drop off zone; those parking in the back can easily walk down 4th or 2nd Street to get to the entrance of The Old Gym.
When are services?
We gather for worship at 10:30 a.m.
What should I wear?
You should wear whatever makes you feel comfortable. There is no dress code, written or unwritten, at Christ the King. A lot of our folks wear jeans. Some men wear dress pants and blazers. Some women wear dresses. The pastor usually wears a button down or polo shirt.
What is worship like?
Our worship is meant to tell the story of the Gospel each week. We enter into God’s presence by praising his majesty and affirming our faith together. We then spend time confessing our sin together and being assured of God’s gracious pardon in Christ. We respond to that forgiveness with joy, giving our tithes, gifts, and offerings. We then hear from God’s Word about what it means to follow Jesus in our lives. Each week the service culminates in the celebration of The Lord’s Supper before we are sent into the world with God’s blessing.

Can I take The Lord’s Supper (also known as Holy Communion or The Eucharist)?
If you have been baptized in the name of the Triune God and have made a public profession of faith in Jesus you are welcome to receive the Lord’s Supper at Christ the King Church.
What is the music like at Christ the King?
Our musicians and vocalists lead us in music that follows the rhythms of our liturgy, and we enjoy a balance of modernly attuned, historically connected, theologically fitting, and culturally familiar songs. We hope and pray that our music encourages rest in the Triune God and joyful celebration of Him through the restorative gift of singing.
We desire our music to be congregational singable, theologically faithful, culturally accessible, and emotionally honest.
What is the preaching like?
At Christ the King Church, we take the Bible very seriously. Sermons seek to explain the Biblical text in a way that helps us understand ourselves and Jesus more fully. Sermons also seek to help us respond appropriately to God’s grace in our lives. You can listen to recent sermons here.
