Working Together
Cambridge Council of Christian Churches
Leaders of many of the churches of Cambridge work together to on projects of common concern. The relationships that are built through prayer and planning provide the foundation for cooperation in living out love for God and others. Sharing event information among the various faith communities opens opportunites for participation across denominational lines.
