List of churches in the United Reformed Church
This is a list of churches in the United Reformed Church denomination in the United Kingdom. In 1972, the Presbyterian Church of England united with the Congregational Church in England and Wales to form the United Reformed Church (URC).[1]
The 2022 General Assembly report wrote, "As a denomination, we are a small fraction of who and what we were in 1972 – we have about a fifth of the membership we had on our formation, and the number of churches has fallen from a little over 2,000 to a little under 1,300. We have about three-fifths the number of churches compared with one-fifth of the membership. These churches are served by 390 Ministers (Stipendiary and Non-Stipendiary), compared to 1,844 in 1972. Again, the ‘workforce’ of Ministers of Word and Sacrament is about one-fifth of the number 50 years ago."[2]
