The aim of Churches Together in Camberley (CTC) is to build better relationships.

We want to play our part in building better relationships between different parts of the community, different nationalities living in Camberley, different churches and, above all, building better relationships between ourselves and God. CTC is made up of all the main Christian Churches in Camberley who are committed to working together, praying together and making a difference in our local community of Camberley.

With this leaflet comes an invitation to you, to come and share with us the wonderful discovery that knowing Jesus Christ as our friend brings us the peace and strength for daily living and the hope for the life to come. We look forward to seeing you soon!
