Welcome to the Oxford University Catholic Chaplaincy
Nurturing faith
The Chaplaincy is the parish for members of the University, we have regular celebrations of Mass and prayer times, and we prepare for and celebrate marriages and baptisms. We also accompany the vocational discernment of students On most evenings in term, we also celebrate Mass in different College Chapels.
Student groups
The Chaplaincy flourishes because many groups of students organise activities themselves with the help of the Chaplains. The Newman Cathsoc (The Newman Society) cooks and serves a hot meal and organises a talk each Thursday during term on a wide variety of topics, as well as mounting social events. There are many other activities including prayer groups, walks and numerous other social events.
Our vision is that those choosing to attend the Chaplaincy, experience here what the founders of the Chaplaincy desired, the nurturing of their faith, leading them as men and women for others to transform the world as their Creator wishes.
You can also find out how to book our conference facilities and book holiday accommodation during the Oxford University vacations.
