open doors

In common with thousands of places all over the Kingdom, the Oxford Oratory is listed in the "Open Doors" booklets produced for those who want to visit places and buildings during the weekend 10th to 11th September. Admittedly we are open every day of the year without charge anyway, but we found last year that lots of local residents came to look round for the first time.

This year we have put on a little exhibition in the Guild Room, to show them something about St Philip, something about Blessed JHN, and something about the past and future of our church. Including, of course, the New Building which we really hope to get going ere long. A chance for new people to become excited about the project, to sign on for an information function, or to make a major donation. Whenever there's an economic disaster, someone out there is making a great deal of money out of it - we just need to find that someone and make her feel guilty.



Nothing new in the way of pictures this week, so here's an open door we found recently.
