Discovering Jesus through the Eucharist
Explore the profound meal at the heart of Christian life - whether you’re new to Christianity or have been coming to church for years.
Come and See is a free online experience to explore spirituality and find out more about the Christian faith. Sign up below to get daily emails through Lent, with reflections, readings and encouragements. Each Sunday, there's a video from Bishop Steven, unpacking another aspect of the Eucharist.

What is Come and See?
Each Lent, we delve into a new aspect of Christian faith - this year we're looking at the Eucharist - or Holy Communion. It's perfect for new and old Christians alike, and can be done on your own, as a family, as a church, school or in a small group.
What does it involve?
Everyone who registers receives a short daily email to reflect on, and a weekly video from Bishop Steven exploring the themes in a bit more detail. There are intergenerational activities each Sunday, so you can do it together as a family too.
Church organisers get everything in advance, alongside a special leader's guide and promotional resources.
I'm in, how do I sign up?
You can sign up now to receive the daily emails, or sign up here if you'd like to lead Come and See in your parish.
Your local parish might also be running Come and See in their services, in small groups or in another way. Check in with your vicar or small group leader and let them know now that you'd be interested in a local Come and See group.
You can also check out past years at any point on the Oxford Diocesan Learning Hub, and journey through the video reflections online in your own time.
What do people think?
We've just completed our fifth year of Come and See. Over the years we've learned that once people sign up for Come and See during Lent, they stay. Here's just a few comments from 2025:
"I was so moved by the content of the course that I am being confirmed in October with a small group from church, so thank you."
"The Sunday talk with Bishop Steven was so clear and concise. In all the six weeks I learnt so much on something that can be taken for granted."
“I have to say that I found the whole series was very well produced and published. I work in broadcast as an engineer. With my background and technical experience, I would say "don't change a thing!"
