World Mission
St Andrew’s support mission in Oxford and around the world to see lives transformed by Jesus.
How you can support missions
You can encourage and support our Mission Partners in many ways, including:
Giving financially to their work, especially during the church’s annual World Mission Week. During the rest of the year, money is allocated to mission from our general fund.
Praying for them and their ministries. You can ask to receive regular updates by email or post.
Caring and connecting with them by calling them, sending them a link to a sermon or even a birthday card!
World Mission Sunday 17th May 2026
We raised a wonderful £25K that will be split between two projects, which has been sent to IFES & Wycliffe.
Thank you for your generosity.
Our Mission Partners
The Church currently has 5 Mission Partners and Friends, and 2 Mission Partner Agencies in the UK and abroad.
Each week we share the latest updates and prayers from one of our missionaries – pray with us.
Contact
To find out more about missions, please contact wmg@standrewsoxford.org. Most house groups stay connected with a mission partner — ask your group leader for updates.
