We are a Benefice of eight Church of England churches serving a group of villages stretching ten miles across the Vale of Otmoor from Woodeaton, close to Oxford’s John Radcliffe Hospital, to Ambrosden, a rapidly growing village near Bicester.
We are now pleased to welcome our new Benefice Rector, the Reverend Cortney Dale who has joined us from the USA. More details about Cortney can been seen here.
We hope to recruit into two ‘House for Duty’ priests to assist Cortney in the next few month. In the meantime, she is being ably assisted a team of local retired clergy: The Revd Lisa Holmes, who lives in Ambrosden, the Revd Canon Brian Mountford who lives in Islip, the very Bishop June Osborne who lives in Noke and the Revd David Wippell who lives in Islip.
All our churches are keen to be welcoming and helpful to all, both those who are long-standing church members and those who are in search of God or trying to find a spiritual dimension to their life.
