St Oswald's Church - responding to the pandemic
Following advice from the Archbishops of Canterbury and York all church services and meetings are suspended, and the church building and parochial hall closed, because
of the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic. This is to reduce the risk of spreading the infection at gatherings of people.
But St Oswald's is still here as a church to serve our congregation and our community at large. We will do all we can to stay in touch with you and support you.
We are producing a regular news sheet. If you would like to receive it direct

Welcome to our website
St Oswald's is a beautiful and historic Church of England Parish Church in the village of Sowerby, just outside Thirsk. It is attended by people of all ages who live in the village and surrounding area, and by many visitors
to this scenic part of North Yorkshire. St Oswald's has a thriving ministry to children and young people, a variety of music styles, opportunities for learning about the Christian faith in small groups or simply being quiet
and reflective together.
We enjoy close links with our sister churches - St Mary's at Bagby, St Mary's at Kilburn, St Cuthbert's at Sessay and All Saints at Thirkleby - as well as Sowerby Methodist Church and the Thirsk Parishes. We are also members
of the local Churches Together Group. This website tells you a lot more about the ministry of St Oswald's Church.
If there is any further information you would like, please do not hesitate to contact either of the Churchwardens, David Tucker and Simon Birkbeck.
