Local Groups
Where it all happens...
What keeps Churches Together alive in Lancashire is what’s happening on the ground at local level. Wherever Christians of different denominations and traditions are finding ways to work, worship and serve their communities together, then we are sharing the Gospel through unity in mission. Two key ways in which CTL seeks to foster and support these aims is through our sponsorship of Local Ecumenical Partnerships, and Local Churches Together Groups.
Churches Together Groups
There are currently around 60 Local Churches Together Groups meeting throughout Lancashire. Some are powerhouses of life and energy ; others are perhaps feeling in need of a rethink and a new start.
