This Thursday, Father Robin (Robert) Gibbons, an Oxford scholar, Melkite Catholic priest, and Ecumenical Canon of Christ Church, will be speaking to Orthodox Society on the life and times of our patron saint, St Frideswide, who is also the Heavenly Protectress of Oxford University and the city of Oxford. It has every promise of being a fascinating talk, as well as an excellent opportunity to hear, in an informal setting, from a leading scholar of both the Christian East and the early Christian heritage of our own city and country.

Father Robin’s lecture will begin at 7.30pm, this Thursday (of 3rd Week), 10th May 2018, in the House of Saint Gregory and Saint Macrina, 1 Canterbury Road, OX2 6LU. We look forward to seeing as many of you there as can come!

We will not be having a formal meal, but do feel free to join us from a bit earlier (7pm or so) and bring along some snacks or drinks to share.
