It is now a year since the launch of our Building Appeal. Thanks be to God, we have raised over £130,000 towards our target of £500,000.
Several carol singing sessions during the last few weeks before Christmas helped to increase awareness of our appeal in Oxford. A carol singing video in the archive captures some of our parish members in action!
Our first lottery was a great success. Over 2,000 tickets were sold, thanks to the hard work of friends and parish members. The lottery also acted as a catalyst for several generous donations to the appeal.
Postal delays involving a significant number of sold tickets meant we were forced to postpone the lottery draw date until Sunday 28th February. However, the prizes have now been drawn and winners have been notified. Thank you to all ticket holders for your patience.
The latest good news is that our appointed builder, Stuart Barr, began restoration work in February. We expect completion by August and hope to begin celebrating services in the restored church building by Autumn of this year.
Please continue to remember us in your prayers during this blessed season of Great Lent!
