This
is a church of great historical interest and has at its heart
the Christian faith. The history of the church runs in parallel
with that of St. Osyth Priory. A guide to the building and a
brief history of the church is available on this website and
in the church should you choose to visit us.
We
welcome worshippers and visitors to our church from the local
community, the UK and the world.
We
hope that you will find the information you need on this website.
It includes details of our services, a diary,
our activities
and past events. If you cannot find what you are looking for
then please do make contact with us by clicking on the CONTACTS
button above. Better still, if you and your family and friends
are able to visit us, you will find a very warm welcome awaits
you.
We
look forward to seeing you.
We
are currently in an Interregnum,
i.e. a period without a Vicar.
We
are very glad to confirm that the Revd Sharon Miles, currently
Rector, Rivenhall and Silver End, Essex has accepted the offer
of the post of Priest
in Charge of this Parish.
This appointment is subject to the satisfactory completion of
all necessary legal processes.
We are looking forward to the Licensing service on 25th November.

Grantham and Yrina Morgan Kendall , Churchwardens
Until
Rev. Sharon has been installed we continue to be blessed with
Rev Tony Pugsley and Rev Heather Connell to look after us.

WAR
MEMORIAL APPEAL
The
War memorial erected in front of our Church in 1920 was damaged
in 1999 and we are currently raising money to completely replace
it. It will be rebuilt in exactly the same design as the original
but with a shorter 10 foot shaft for the cross and in Portland
stone. We have already raised over £8,500 towards the
replacement cost of £11, 136 so we need another £2,500.
PLEASE
CAN YOU HELP?
If
you would like to make a donation this can be sent to Mrs Sonia
Grantham at St. Clere's Hall Farm, St. Clere's Hall Lane, CO16
8RX. Cheques should be made payable to "St. Osyth Church".
THANK
YOU
