Remembrance Sunday in Birmingham
Most years I miss Remembrance Sunday at St. Oswald’s, as I return to my family home and church in Birmingham to remember those who gave their lives in wartime service. It has a special poignancy as my father was a veteran of the Normandy campaign and of subsequent action across northern Europe in the later…
Our Get-Ready-For-Christmas-Fayre goes with a real swing!
Crowds flocked to our Get Ready For Christmas Fayre this afternoon making it a real community event! There was lots to do with several tombolas, jewelery, craft and cake stalls, a magic advent calendar which gave out chocolates and sweets in abundance (Well done Brownies!), a lovely stall selling Christmas Stockings and Gingerbread Houses full…
A Harvest ‘Well Done’!
We had our Harvest Festival a few weeks ago and collected goods for Blackburn Food Bank. We are very far from being a wealthy parish – in fact we’re one of the poorest in Blackburn Diocese. However, this doesn’t stop members of St. Oswald’s acting with generosity. This week we received a letter of thanks…
All Souls Service
On Sunday afternoon we held our annual service of remembrance for our loved ones who had died. It was good to see many of our ‘funeral families’ again even though the occasion was solemn. We lit candles and read out a long list of names of those wom we had been asked to remember. All…

Morning Service Sept 11th
Rev’d Canon Arthur Ransom took a lovely service this morning on the theme of heritage. He spoke about how heritage should be a living thing which informs what we do in our day and what we pass onto the next generation…
Today’s Services – 21st August 2016
Our morning service was led by Father Chris Coupe whose sermon concerned Hebrews 12 vs 18-29 and the Gospel Reading, Luke 13 vs 10-17, that in Christ, people are special and can always look upwards in hope. The messy sermon group, led by Carol Ratcliffe, created a poster based on Jeremiah 1 vs 4-10, that we should not…
All Age Eucharist – Sunday 31st July
This morning we considered the most important things in our lives using three symbols from today’s Gospel reading: [Jesus] told them a parable: “The land of a rich man produced abundantly. And he thought to himself, ‘What should I do, for I have no place to store my crops?’ Then he said, ‘I will do…
