Work is progressing beautifully on our new Sacred Heart altar. Here we see part of the ‘dry build’ in the stonemason’s workshop in County Down. #oxfordoratory

Farewell to Chesterton
When our new library was completed in 2013, it meant we were able to provide a home in the UK for the G K Chesterton library. A more permanent home has now been given to the library by the University of Notre Dame’s London Global Gateway on Trafalgar Square, making the collection much more accessible to visitors and researchers.

Fr Marco Egawhary
Please pray for Marco Egawhary who will be ordained priest for the Archdiocese of Birmingham on Saturday 20 July in St Chad’s Cathedral. Fr Marco will celebrate his first Mass in our church at 9:30 on Sunday 21 July (not at the 11:00 as previously advertised).
A celebratory reception for Fr Jerome’s 40th anniversary was enjoyed by all after the High Mass, at the end of which Fr Jerome gave Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. Here the Father gives a speech and Fr Jerome thanks all those present.
Today Fr Jerome celebrates 40 years of priesthood. Here he is preaching at the 9:30 Mass this morning. Ad multos annos, Father. #oxfordoratory
