We're delighted to invite you to the 2025 Clergy Conference for the Diocese of Oxford. This will be a time for connection, worship, rest, and learning, shaped around the themes: Chosen, Called, Commissioned.
We are returning to The Hayes Conference Centre, Swanwick, Derbyshire, for three days of restoration and community. The cost of the conference is £175, and places are limited, so please book soon.
Keynote speakers include Sr Dr Gemma Simmonds, CJ (Margaret Beaufort Institute), and Prof Luke Bretherton (Christ Church, Oxford). Alongside workshops and teaching, space will be available for personal reflection.
Cost: £175 (subsidised by the diocese). If you feel financial hardship may be a barrier to you attending please speak to your archdeacon. If you have access needs or wish to share a room, please let us know on your booking form.
Feedback from the last conference
"I felt welcomed, valued and loved by my colleagues and staff team in the diocese alike"
"Bishop Steven's teaching was inspiring, courageous and refreshingly honest and personal."
"The chances to chat, to share, to feel others were interested and listening were key for me."
