Churches Together in Southwell (CTiS)

The churches of Southwell welcome you to this website, which we hope will introduce you to the seven churches of the Christian community here, and to the many activities and projects undertaken by church members.

Southwell has been a centre of Christian witness and worship for over 1000 years. The present churches include the ancient Minster Cathedral, the Georgian Baptist, the modern Roman Catholic, and Riverside Church, which meets in the Minster school; the Methodist Church and Holy Trinity are Victorian buildings that have been extensively adapted to facilitate worship and community use, and Living Waters Fellowship Southwell, who own no building but meet in various homes throughout Southwell and the neighbouring villages.
