About Thornbury Churches Together

Thornbury Churches Together is a group of churches covenanted together since 1989, and linked to Churches Together in Gloucestershire.

It is formed from representatives of the following churches (click on their names to visit their websites):

Thornbury Churches Together aims to draw the churches together in greater understanding and fellowship, to enable them to bear a harmonious witness to the community, and to give expression to their common faith and devotion.

It continues a previous "Association of Christian Churches in Thornbury", and has been pleased to welcome "ngm" as a closely associated group since their establishment in Thornbury.

We believe it is unusual, though probably not unique, that as many as seven denominations have been happy to covenant and continue to work together in one community.

Thornbury Churches Together Good Friday Procession of Witness

Thornbury Churches Together works to enrich the lives of the whole community in the following ways:

  • Lent housegroups
  • Good Friday Procession of Witness
  • Supplying books to Year 6 local school leavers annually, and occasionally supplying other books, sometimes including Bibles
  • Leading assemblies in local schools
  • TCT Saturday Card and Fair Trade stall at the United Reformed Church
  • Christmas Carol Singing
  • Rota of Sunday evening services at Thornbury Hospital
  • Weekly "Open the book" sessions in primary schools
  • Thornbury Together Summer programme of activities
  • Dialogues exploring common issues
Thornbury Churches Together are also active in Christian Aid, Fair Trade, Justice and Drop the Debt campaigns.

Faith Action Audit

In February 2010, Thornbury Churches Together (TCT) commissioned the production of a Faith Action Audit for Thornbury. The purpose of this work was to establish the work undertaken by the Christian community for the benefit of the wider community, to celebrate successes and to identify ways of working better together both within and outside of the churches.
