Our Community
Welcome to Cowley St John – a friendly and open-minded community in the heart of East Oxford. We are an inclusive parish with two churches and a beautiful chapel.
St Mary and St John is our main church on the Cowley Road.
St Albans is our smaller church hidden away on Charles Street.
Details of our services are below. We also have a number of other events each month. Sign up to our E-Bulletin for up-to-date information by email.
