Welcome to Oxford!
We’re so thrilled you’re here. Oxford is a wonderful city with so much history, beauty and culture; we hope and pray you’ll have a fantastic time here - however long you’ll be around.
University is such an exciting time to get involved in all sorts of things. As well as the many societies you can join and all the work you’ll be doing, our prayer is that being a part of a church community will be central to your time as a student here, and that your love for Jesus will grow as a result.
Whether or not you’ve been a part of a church community growing up, we’d love to encourage you to prioritise joining and investing in a local church during your time as a student. The student years are so often such a pivotal time of growth and flourishing in faith, and being a part of a church community that can support, encourage and challenge you in this is crucial to thriving as a Christian throughout this time.
