About Churches Together

Many Churches, one purpose

There are many different Christian churches and denominations, but all have the same basic calling:

to worship God, to share the good news about Jesus Christ and to work for the good of all people.

So they often need to work together - and to co-ordinate the work they each do separately. When they do, they are acting as Churches Together. But being Churches Together means more than that. It means commitment by each church and denomination to deepen its fellowship with the others, and - without losing what makes each interestingly different - to work with them towards a greater visible unity.

To help the churches live as Churches Together, local groups have been created to ease their way, of which ours is one. We come under the banner of Churches Together in Surrey (although we are in Hampshire – don’t ask!) which in turn falls within Churches Together in Britain and Ireland
