St Mary's Banbury

Welcome to St Mary's Church in Banbury. We are proud to be part of Inclusive Church, a network of churches who strive to celebrate and affirm every person and does not discriminate.

We will continue to challenge the church where it continues to discriminate against people on grounds of disability, economic power, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, learning disability, mental health, neurodiversity, or sexuality.

We believe in a Church which welcomes and serves all people in the name of Jesus Christ; which is scripturally faithful; which seeks to proclaim the Gospel afresh for each generation; and which, in the power of the Holy Spirit, allows all people to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Jesus Christ.

If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the PSO Sarah Bayliss on safeguarding@ banburystmary.org.uk or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor Erica Hegg on erica.hegg@ oxford.anglican.org.
