Students always receive a warm welcome to the church along with everyone else! We usually hold a special welcome meal early in the first term to which all are welcome, even if you don't come again - although we hope that you will!
As well as the welcome meal, we provide lunch every Sunday during term time for any students visting us. We will also provide transport to and from our services.
One former student said "It is great to have a break from Hall food occasionally and these invitations out are a good way of getting to know some of the people in the church a lot better. It helped me get settled in the church quickly and the food is always superb!"
As well as the food, OEFC also organises a prayer list at exam time so that the congregation can remember those who have exams. You don't have to come regularly to get on the list.
The church is well positioned for students, being a short walk from the Oadby halls of residence. The map below show the location of OEFC from the main University of Leicester student accommodation. It is also close to the De Montfort University accommodation on Ratcliffe Road.
We encourage any students who are willing, to get involved in the church whether it be in the youthwork, as musicians or in any other way.If you decide to worship with us at any point during your time in Leicester, we hope you feel really welcome and we would love to hear your comments or suggestions. If you would like to contact us now, please feel free to email: .
