St Oswald's

Welcome to St Oswald’s!

We are a loving, welcoming and multi-generational church, based in the heart of Abbeydale, Sheffield.

We worship in our church building every Sunday. 

We have two services on Sunday mornings - a 9am traditional communion service, and a 10.30 contemporary worship service with a kids group. 

Around once a month we have a joint service all together at 10.30am.

Please visit this page to see details of our upcoming joint services, other events & news:

Our Mission is to Love God, Love People and make disciples.

Jesus said the greatest commandments are to love God and love our neighbour, and His great commission is to make disciples of all nations.

Everyone is welcome.

No matter where you’re from or where you are on your faith journey.

We hope to see you soon!

Scouts gives young people skills for life. We actively engage and support them in their personal development, empowering them to make a positive contribution to society.

In partnership with adults, young people take part in fun indoor and outdoor activities. They learn by doing, by sharing in spiritual reflection and by taking responsibility. They make choices, try new and challenging activities, and live their Scout Promise. All of this is underpinned by our Scout values. The values of Scouting are integrity, respect, care, belief, and cooperation.

Scouts at St Oswald’s learn through doing, we go camping, hiking, swimming, abseiling, cycling and canoeing. But we also get to hang out with our friends every week – having fun, playing games, working in a team and taking on new challenges to learn life skills. St Oswald's Scout Group has around 85 young people who weekly engage with a wide range of life skills education activities both indoors and outdoors supported by around 40 adult volunteers some in full leadership roles and some in occasional helper and specialist roles to make the Scout Group function. Most meetings have a time for reflection where young people and adults reflect on how they live Scouting Values and their section’s Scout promise.
