Everyone is Welcome
A warm and welcoming church community in the heart of the beautiful Oxfordshire market town of Woodstock.
We strive to be inclusive and express our care for God’s world.
We’d love to see you at our 1030 service on a Sunday (Junior Church runs alongside) and afterwards for refreshments and conversation in the hall.
Alternatively please do come along to one of our other activities.
The church is generally open during the day on Saturday and Sunday.
Street parking Monday to Sunday 8am to 6pm – 1st hour free (display ticket from machine), 2 hours for £1. Maximum stay 4 hours no return within 1 hour. 6pm to 8am free. Blue badge holders may park without charge or time limit.

Ministerial Changes Summer 2026
Paul Carter will be leaving us at the end of July this year to move to be minister in the South Worcestershire circuit. We have now been matched
with Luke McLeod (pictured) who will be coming to be our minister in September. Luke is currently in ministerial training and will therefore arrive as a probationer minister (meaning he will still be training on the job for 2 years). He will be responsible for Woodstock, Kidlington and Bladon Methodist Churches.

Day of Outreach
The Methodist Church is promoting a day of outreach on Wednesday 12 August, to coincide with the solar eclipse that day. Viewed from the UK, over 90% of the Sun will be occluded. Whilst there will be other partial eclipses over the next few years, this will be the most dramatic one many people will experience from the UK during their lifetimes (our next total eclipse
isn’t until 2090).
