The History of Churches Together in Britain                            

 In 1987, at a meeting in Swanwick, the churches present adopted a declaration on Christian unity. 'Churches Together' was the result of this process which replaced the British Council of Churches with bodies that included a broader spread of churches, especially the Roman Catholic Church. Churches Together places the emphasis upon the Churches in pilgrimage together towards full visible unity rather than ecumenical institutions acting and speaking on behalf of the church.

CHURCHES TOGETHER IN BELPER (CTIB) meet regularly to pray and to plan activities and strategies which demonstrate their united vision for mission in the town.

They worked alongside a community drama group to perform The Belper Passion on Good Friday 2013, 2014 and 2018 and The Resurrection in 2015. They have had stalls at the 'Christmas Lights Switch-on' evening and, with the enthusiastic co-operation of local shop managers, had two Christmas competitions during Advent.
