Congregational Federation


The Congregational Federation is a small Christian denomination in Great Britain comprising just under 300 congregations. The Federation brings together Congregational churches, and provides support and guidance to member churches both financially and otherwise.
The Federation was formed in 1972 from those Congregational churches which did not enter the union of the Presbyterian Church of England with the Congregational Church in England and Wales to form the United Reformed Church. These were joined in 2000 by member churches of the Congregational Union of Scotland that chose not to join their merger with the United Reformed Church.
It is a member of the International Congregational Fellowship, an international network of Congregational churches and their national associations. Some of its churches are also in membership of the Evangelical Fellowship of Congregational Churches.
The offices of the Congregational Federation are in Nottingham, England.
