A warm welcome to the website of St. Oswald’s, the Town Centre Church of Oswestry, which has been a place of worship for almost 1000 years. Worship is supported by choral music of high quality and by thoughtful preaching, prayer and action. St. Oswald’s works closely in friendship with other local churches and organisations in the wider community as we seek to share God’s love for all.

Organist cover required.

About two weeks ago  our organist’s husband, Bill Sands,   suffered a series of severe strokes. Recovery will take a long time and Jo Sands; our Organist has asked for Compassionate Leave of 3 months both to cope with Bill’s recovery but also to cope with the stress that has been placed on her.
This leaves us in a difficult position with Lent and Easter looming and I am reaching out to you to see if you are, in any way, able to help covering practices and services either yourself or by recommending anyone that I can approach.
