Eynsham squareThe Church is at the southern end of the village just down Church Street and Abbey Street from the Village Square and is situated on the site of the ancient Abbey of Eynsham. Its grounds includes a peaceful graveyard and gardens with beautiful views south across the River Thames towards Wytham Wood. The Church and its grounds are open for anyone to use as a place of quiet and prayer.


Our life is centered round the Mass which Our Lord Jesus Christ gave to us the night before he died, as the way in which he would always be present for us, and the way we could offer our whole lives to him and thus be inspired to take his message of love and peace out into the world.
