The Roman Catholic family of churches carries a long and particular story within the wider Church. The Roman Catholic Church in England, Wales and Scotland serves a Catholic population of several million, in full communion with the Pope. Parish life centres on the Mass and the sacraments, and many congregations have been renewed in recent decades by worshippers arriving from Poland, India, Nigeria and elsewhere. Weekly Mass attendance across Britain runs into the high hundreds of thousands. The tradition traces its modern form to the 1st century; hierarchy restored in England and Wales in 1850. As a measure of its reach, the wider family today counts roughly 4 million Catholics across the UK.
It belongs to the broad community of churches across England, home to the Church of England alongside thriving Catholic, Methodist, Baptist and independent churches. Oxford is the county town of Oxfordshire and a focal point for church life in the area. The church forms part of the wider Roman Catholic presence across Oxfordshire.
