We are a lively, welcoming Parish church in a friendly village. Our vision "Together with Jesus" is about growing in Worship, Learning, Prayer, Serving Others, Sharing the Good News, Living Life Together and Celebrating, and so to become more Christlike. 

Our vicar is Jonathan Widdess. Before coming to Cumnor he was serving in Bargoed in South Wales, where he led the parish in developing the church hall as a community hub to reach local people with the Gospel and fight poverty. Jonathan is a member of New Wine and is passionate about the power of Jesus to change people's lives. We have a part-time parish administrator, Sarah Evans and a number of gifted and passionate volunteers.
