This Autumn, we will be celebrating the Harvest season with a walk through our beautiful home, giving thanks for the place in which we live, and follow that up with a bowl of hot, homemade soup!

Exciting news! We have relaunched a daytime course of Alpha! Beginning on Monday, 25 September at 1pm, we will gather together for a number of weeks to explore the Christian faith, ask questions, and share our views. This will involve gathering in the church for a discussion, refreshments, and building relationships.
Please join us on Monday afternoons at St. Oswald’s Church and if you require more information, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
We have just launched a new weekly event of having our St. Oswald’s open on Monday mornings for Prayer. The church will be open from 9:00am until 12:00pm where you can come and pray either out loud with others, or quietly on your own. Please feel free to use this time to reflect and connect with God for the new week. We look forward to seeing you there.
This Sunday, 26th June, there will be no evening service at St. Oswald’s. Instead, we are taking a field-trip down the road to St. James’ Church to be a part of an open worship evening that begins at 6:30pm. Bishop Julie will be speaking while our very own Keith will be leading worship along with Jane Adenbrook.
Everyone is welcome to come along and we hope to see you there!
The next PCC meeting will be on Wednesday, 28 September at 7:30pm at St. Oswald’s Church. Even if you are not a member of the PCC, you are very welcome to come and hear about updates, new developments, and the ongoing life of our church. Looking forward to seeing you there!
Over the last several months, we’ve been working hard to provide a new way for everyone to be able to give to the life and ministry of St. Oswald’s Church — finally, we’re very excited to announce the launch of our new online giving platform!
It’s really simple to use; simply scan the QR code with the camera on your phone and it will direct you to a site which allows you to select a one-time gift, or set up a standing donation to the church. If don’t have the ability to scan the code, you can also put the web address into your browser (or click on the new button at the top of every page on this site!) and it will take you there instead. Click here to be able to see the page!

Come join us on Sunday, 26 May, after our morning service as we wrap up the 2023 Church year with our APCM. We will be discussing this last year, saying a huge thank you to those members in our PCC who are stepping down from roles, vote on new members who will take up the flags of these roles, and welcome more people onto our PCC.
You are more than welcome to come listen, celebrate, and prepare for the new year ahead with us.
