OXON CHURCH WOMEN'S FELLOWSHIP
Sadly, at the AGM on 13 March 2012, the decision was taken to cease the Fellowship, at least for the time being. It is hoped that in spirit the Fellowship will continue to function and plan social activities and outings for the whole Church.

A social group will continue to provide tea & coffee and a cake/produce stall on the first Sunday of every month. Donations of home-made cakes and produce from your garden will be much appreciated. Proceeds will help to support the Church.
