Who We Are

We exist to promote the unity in life and mission across the churches in Canterbury. 

The Canterbury Council of Churches exists to promote awareness that the unity in life and mission of all Christ’s people is the will of God; to seek to make such unity more apparent than our divisions; to initiate and/or give every possible encouragement to local ecumenical projects; to provide a forum whereby member churches can develop methods of decision-making together. In doing so it seeks to enable a more effective Christian presence in the community.
