Who we are

The Christian Enquiry Agency provides information for people who want to find out about the Christian faith and its founder Jesus Christ.  The information is reliable, objective and given confidentially. 

It does not just give a version of Christianity adhered to by one particular group of Christians (‘denomination’ or ‘tradition’).  Instead it attempts to explain and explore what Christians of all kinds believe.

CEA tries to respond to all enquirers by giving them what they ask for, and only what they ask for.  It takes steps to ensure that no one is given information unsolicited.  It does not seek to take the place of local churches.

It is an agency of Churches Together in Britain and Ireland and a registered charity (number 297393).  CEA works on behalf of all the major UK churches, and in partnership with many Christian organisations.

The work of the Christian Enquiry Agency is entirely dependent on donations and grants.

The patrons of CEA are Lord Alton of Liverpool, Revd Baroness Richardson and Rt Revd Tom Butler.

The trustees are Des Scott (chair), Revd Kathryn Morgan (secretary), Eric Thompson (treasurer), Joanna Cox and Revd Roger Whitehead.

The coordinator is Peter Graystone, who is assisted by Pat Flynn.  The day to day work is overseen by the Church Army and the Deo Gloria Trust from offices in Croydon, South London, England.
