Pusey House

General information

During the 19th century Oxford was the centre of a revival of Church life which affected the whole of the Church of England, and had its influence far beyond. Dr. E. B. Pusey, who for more than fifty years was Regius Professor of Hebrew and a Canon of Christ Church, was at the very heart of this Catholic Revival which became known as the Oxford Movement. In 1884 Pusey House was founded in memory of him as a centre of prayer, theological study and pastoral care, open to all members of the University. The House has always been known for its lively presentation of the Catholic Church as received by the Church of England and has a tradition of excellence in worship and strong doctrinal preaching. It is intended to compliment the work of the College Chapels, and seeks to feed into the Christian Community in the University such insight about the Word and Sacrament as its tradition may be able to contribute.

The Principal, Chaplain and Librarian are available and glad to see any who call on them.

The Friends of Pusey House provide additional support for its work. If you are interested in becoming a Friend please email or contact a member of chapter.
