How we support students
We love the fact there are so many students in this amazing city. If that’s you, then we want to do all we can to encourage and be a blessing as you study and live here. You may be looking for a church to call home or curious about faith in God and have questions you’d like to discuss with someone. Either way do get in touch or come and connect with us at one of our Sunday gatherings at Greyfriars Catholic School (OX4 3DR), just off the Cowley Road.
Ryan Brewer is our Student Outreach Pastor, and he would love to hear from you if you’re an undergrad or postgrad student at either Oxford Brookes or Oxford University. He is always up for meeting new people, is a brilliant encourager and loves drinking good coffee! Ryan is married to Randi and together they have five children who make their life both full and joyful. As a family they love travelling and experiencing new cultures and Ryan enjoys keeping active at the gym. He has 16 years of ministry experience across three continents, and prior to living in Oxford spent 6 years in Thailand working closely with young people. He is passionate about investing in future leaders and helping students develop a relationship with Jesus that endures and impacts every part of their lives.
In 2025 Ryan started Oxford Postgrads Collective who host weekly ‘Dinner and Discussion’ nights for postgrad students and academics.
