Council Christians Jews (CCJ)

The Council of Christians and Jews (CCJ) is the leading nationwide forum for Christian-Jewish engagement:

​

• celebrating the history and diversity of both communities,

• facilitating constructive dialogue,

• enabling meaningful learning experiences; and providing opportunities for transformative change.

​​

This engagement takes place in communities across UK through their branches as well as through their programmes.

There are three tranches to CCJ’s programmatic work: Education, Dialogue and Social Action.
When facilitating Christian-Jewish engagement, CCJ ensures that the following core values remain central:

​

• Promoting understanding

• Valuing difference

• Demonstrating empathy and respect

• Challenging prejudices
