Welcome from Rev'd Rob Glenny

Welcome to the RSK benefice. We are a group of welcoming, inclusive churches committed to sharing God's love, flourishing as God's people, and extending God's hospitality into our community.
We are three Church of England churches serving the parishes of Radley, Sunningwell, and Kennington.
We believe that the church is a place of encounter where, with one another, we are transformed through being with God.
We look forward to welcoming you.

Messy Church Live
Giving

Sunday worship is only available on-line until further notice.

While areas in Tier 4 are permitted to continue to worship in their churches on a Sunday morning we have taken the decision to cancel our in-person services until further notice.  We are doing this reluctantly, but believe that, with the current rapid increase in Covid-19 infections, it is the responsible thing to do.  We hope that as many as possible of you will join our streamed service from St James the Great, Radley at 10:30am

Churches open for private prayer

Our three churches are open for prayer.
​

On Wednesdays and Sundays from 9:30am - 5pm all three churches will be open for prayer and reflection.

Try the Labyrinth

Have you been to see it yet? On the ground outside St. Swithun's, Kennington we have chalked a labyrinth on the ground. At first glance it looks like a maze, but a labyrinth is different: you can’t get lost in it if you follow the markings on the ground. They have been around for thousands of years and traditionally they are used to take a breather, let go of the pressures of life, reflect and pray. 

If you would like to learn more about the Labyrinth come along on a Wednesday at 3pm and find out more. Otherwise feel free to explore for yourself – use as a quiet space to think or reflect.
