Churches Together Groups

Working Locally for Christian Unity

Find Your Local Group

A number of local Churches Together groups meet within Cambridge and Cambridgeshire. Each group is autonomous, has its own structure and is shaped by the place and people who form it. Some are called "Churches Together," others "Christians Together," and others have names unique to their area.

Common activities include services and discussion groups, conferences and events, and a wide variety of ways in which service is offered to the local community (eg food banks, street pastors, youth work, lunch clubs, festivals, night shelters, chaplaincy, etc). Your local community can inspire others, so please share your good news stories.

Keep scrolling to find a group local to you! You can also find groups on our interactive map.

Start a Local Group

Maybe you want to start, or restart, a group in your community. The key is to start small! You don't need an elaborate structure. What you need are relationships.

Perhaps you can start by inviting someone from another church for tea and a conversation. Share what you're dreaming about. Pray together.
