Elsfield Parochial Church Council (UK, XN375280) Browse events

Elsfield PCC is responsible for co-operating with the incumbent, the Revd Anthony Price, in promoting the pastoral, evangelical, social and ecumenical mission of the Church throughout the parish. It is also responsible for the maintenance of the Church building in Elsfield. The parish church of St Thomas of Canterbury has stood in this small rural village, North-East of Oxford, since at least 1122. In 1849 and 1859, when the Revd Richard Gordon was vicar, the building was restored in the English Gothic style and new seating was installed under the supervision of G. E. Street. The Salviati mosaics - It is thought that the mosaics were installed behind the altar in the 1860s or 1870s. The central panel on the east wall depicts the Last Supper after Leonardo da Vinci’s painting of the same subject in Milan. The mosaics are by Antonio Salviati (1816-1890), the founder of a glass making and mosaic company based at Murano near Venice, who installed mosaics in a large number of churches and cathedrals in Great Britain including the Wolsey Chapel at Windsor Castle, the Albert Memorial, St Pauls Cathedral and Westminster Abbey. Fundraising - The Elsfield PCC is raising £50,000 to restore these outstanding mosaics, described by scholars as a "National treasure".

In financial terms alone the costs are estimated to amount to £15.3 billion a year to the English economy for drugs and £25.1 billion to the UK economy for alcohol. We help hundreds of people to move away from chaotic states towards stability. We provide the treatment, counselling and guidance that those individuals need in order for them to tackle the root causes. This in turn has a positive impact on the communities around them.

Through discipleship, events and outreach opportunities we are helping the church use what is an international language in sport for Gospel purposes.

Sport can also be a great tool to 'do life' with one another and so 90+ helps to encourage the use of sport as a missional lifestyle. 90+ also runs a discipleship programme for christian athletes. The 2 month academy programme trains, equips and teaches these athletes about using their platform as pro's for Gods glory. Following the 2months, 90+ aims to send out these sports men into clubs and teams as chaplains.
