Churches Together in Milton Keynes


We are a network of Christian communities in Milton Keynes and the surrounding areas. We are working together to show God’s love to the Borough and City of Milton Keynes.

Our current priority is to build a strong network of committed member congregations, but we are also beginning to focus on the Cost of Living, Climate and Mental Health crises that impact our communities in a big way.

Week of Prayer - January 2023!

 

Happy New Year from CTMK!

Hi Everyone

 

This is our first email of 2023 and we are hitting the ground running with a great week of events for the Week of Prayer, which starts on Wednesday 18th January. You’ll find all the details below.

 

But firstly, an introduction, I am Ann and I started my role as Administrator of Churches Together in Milton Keynes last week. Many of you will know me as I worked at MK Mission Partnership for 7 years. I am really excited to be back working in ecumenical mission again and have a personal desire to help people in our city via the work of our churches. I’m based in the Church of Christ the Cornerstone and will be working Monday to Thursday, 10am - 1pm, and Friday 10am - 12 noon. You can contact me via email on admin@ctmk.church. Phone number coming soon!

 

I look forward to working with you all and serving our city.

The Moderator of the URC East Midlands Synod, Revd Geoffrey Clarke will be leading the intercessions. Check the web site for more details if you want to take part.

There are an amazing number of charities and mission agencies based in Milton Keynes. They make a huge difference to our communities - and to the wider world. This is an opportunity to meet some of these change makers and find out how we can support them in their crucial work.

 

There will be stalls, talks, activities and cake!

 

The afternoon will finish with a Cost of Living Summit at 3:15pm which will include speakers from key agencies.

 

Mission Fair

Michael Tippet wrote and composed this moving oratorio during the dark days of the Second World War. It reflects on the experience of oppressed people across the World, with a longing for peace and reconciliation. At the turning point of our week, this concert performance will root our search for justice in the depths of the human soul. Tickets are available from Cornerstone.
