All Saints’ church is part of a benefice with St Peter’s church, Wolvercote. This means that we share a vicar and ministry team and work together serving both parishes. However, our church has its own PCC who work with our vicar and churchwardens to lead and govern our church.
Here in Wolvercote and Wytham, we exist to love God and to share the good news of Jesus Christ. We express this though our gathering in worship, caring for one other, and serving our parish and world.
We share and play our own part in the Diocese of Oxford’s vision to be a more Christ-like Church for the sake of God’s world: more contemplative, more compassionate and more courageous. Within this vision, we aspire to the following values:
Rooted: we are rooted in a loving God. This informs the way we behave to one another and we seek to be a community of loving kindness.
Inclusive: we offer a place of belonging for anyone who wants it. This informs our welcome and our activity. We are members of the Inclusive Church network.
Creative: we are confident in our traditions, and our honouring of the past gives us confidence to embrace the future creatively. We are keen to explore what it means to be a parish church and followers of Jesus in our contemporary context.
Community-facing: we believe in God who sends his Son into the world. We are committed to finding where God is at work and joining in.
People come to us in joy and in sorrow, and the vicar and her team are available to all members of our parish who seek the church’s support. The church is open on most days during daylight hours and people of all faiths and none are welcome to enjoy our beautiful space.
