Local partnerships
Local ecumenical partnerships (LEPs) are joint church ventures in ministry, congregational life, shared buildings and/or mission projects. In each case there is a formal written agreement between the participating denominations and a recognition of that agreement by a Sponsoring Body (Churches Together in South London for our area) and the denominational authorities.
