St Oswald's

We are a Church of England parish with a strong tradition of music in worship, where all are very welcome. As an ancient Church in the centre of Durham, St. Oswald's is a reservoir of peace for all who enter it.

The Sunday service of Holy Communion is at 11am, and we have a play and books corner by the font for any younger worshipper who feels a parent or carer would enjoy it there. Evensong is at 6pm on Sundays, either in the chancel, or on those high days and feast days when the usual hymns expand to a full choral setting, in the body of the church.  Mid-week Holy Communion is at 10am on Wednesdays, and the church is usually open 9:30–5-ish (or till dusk, if earlier) on weekdays.

The latest editions of the weekly newssheet and music notes are in the 'News' tab, and please ask if you'd like to join the mailing list.  Here are links to bellringing and choir and concert info.  We have a strong connection with St. Oswald's Primary and Nursery School, and with our neighbouring parishes of St Mary's Shincliffe, St. Mary's Coxhoe, and St. Helen's, Kelloe. 

Stir up, we beseech thee, O Lord, the wills of thy faithful people; that they, plenteously bringing forth the fruit of good works, may of thee be plenteously rewarded; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
