Members of Christian Life Community meet regularly in small local communities in order to support each other in our lives of prayer and service. We are each free to share on how God has been at work in our lives. The group meetings enable us to receive support and encouragement to persevere in deepening our union with God.
There are nearly seventy local communities in England and Wales.
The practice of sharing and listening creates a deep level of trust in each community. This is where we make, live and experience community.
However this sense of community extends beyond our local community. Through meetings and events at regional and national levels, we are put in touch with the wider community and we widen our horizons. However the same sense of community exists. You can meet people for the first time and immediately be able to share your experiences.
There are four “regions” within the UK that organise three or four events and meetings a year.
We are also part of worldwide community. Again we are able to share our experiences with other national CLC’s. In England and Wales we are close to our sisters and brothers in CLC in Scotland and Ireland. We also meet with CLC in Europe and co-operate with them on a number of issues.
The Christian Life Community is made up of nearly sixty national communities world-wide.
This interconnectedness creates a structure for on-going discernment. The deliberations at the local community level are brought to the world community; and the discernment at the world community is brought to the local community.
