Welcome

A very warm welcome to you and thank you for visiting our web site. We are a Church of England parish in the Anglican Diocese of Southwark and the Deanery of Croydon North. As a Christian and Anglican community, our congregation is made up of different cultures, young and not so young, all of whom share a love of the community and the desire to practise their faith.

Worship Resources Page

We continue to make our 10am Sunday worship available online using BlueJeans.

Coronavirus (COVID-19)

Enabling all to take part in the life and worship of the church

All of our regular Eucharistic services are celebrated in church and the Sunday 10am service can be joined from home via the Blue Jeans Video conferencing app.  

We are no longer providing physical barriers to ensure social distancing but we ask everyone to be respectful of the space of others. Please continue to observe good hand hygiene.

Communion is currently offered in both kinds by priestly intinction.

A regular group offers daily morning prayer through the ‘Blue Jeans’ video conferencing app and from time to time we use it for other activities. All are welcome to join us for these acts of prayer and worship from home. For details of how to join, please contact the vicar.

If you would like us to pray specifically for yourself or a member of your family please contact us through the website or directly to rev.alison@outlook.com

Please take care of yourselves, your family and your neighbours and pray regularly for all those whose lives have become more complicated, stressful or isolated by this virus.

Keep us, good Lord,
under the shadow of your mercy
in this time of uncertainty and distress.
Sustain and support the anxious and fearful,
and lift up all who are brought low;
that we may rejoice in your comfort
knowing that nothing can separate us from your love
in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Amen.

Covid 19 has made a big impact on our finances through a loss of loose collections while the church was closed for worship. Even as we have returned to services in the building we are experiencing reduced offerings while many members of the congregation are unable to attend in person. However the cost of running the church and supporting others remains the same. 
If you are able to, please click on the 'Give a Little' picture above to donate to St Oswald's.
Thank you all for the many ways in which you already give. We are grateful.

Our Mission Prayer

Gracious and loving God, we pray for the mission of our church. By our worship and fellowship may we draw others to the love of God. In our lives may we live the gospel in kindness, forgiveness and compassion. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
