Welcome to the Oxford Jewish Congregation

We are a unique Jewish Community in the UK providing for the needs of Jews in Oxford, whether residents, students or visitors. Though small in size it encompasses under one roof Orthodox, Masorti and Progressive forms of prayer, sometimes simultaneously, The members of the community, whatever their form of worship, come together in the many communal activities as one congregation, welcoming also the stranger "that is within their gates", a frequent occurrence in Oxford. The Oxford Jewish Congregation is a rare, if not unique, community of Jews.

The OJC encourages membership of the Congregation for all Jewish residents and anyone who is visiting for any extended period of time. (Undergraduates at both universities are automatically considered to be members of the Congregation during their period of study in Oxford.) As a small community we welcome Jews of all denominations and are delighted when they choose to join the OJC.

A major development of the Oxford Jewish Centre has been completed recently and the building was rededicated in November 2004. Further information about the project, and some photographs of the site as it unfolded are available.

If you would like to hire the building for your own activities, contact connections@ojc-online.org.
