Who Told You?

The journey to faith is a unique experience, rarely is it the same as other persons discovering their new engagement with the Lord.  This section of the website will be a new opportunity for members of St Sebastian’s to share their personal testimonies as a witness to those exploring their faith.   Thereafter, we would be happy to have a chat as part of journeying together on this road of faith.

 Below are encouraging examples from across Diocese of Oxford where  members were helped along the way, which we hope will inspire your thinking.  Please watch this space for future updates.
