Dear friends
Welcome to the page where you can find the Rector’s letters to the Parish. It is a way of keeping in touch with you by writing about his personal experiences in and around the Parish, and occasionally including more general Anglican news and views. You will be able to gain an insight into our parish life and come to know the Rector. You will also be able to share in our events of worship and fellowship. Our Rector, Revd Selwyn Engelbrecht, will be writing this weekly letter to you all. Do enjoy them, and get to know St Oswald’s better through them.

Dear Parishioners,
I always try my best not to ask parishioners giving up something for Lent. But parishioners do it anyway. It is a good Lenten practice, and does not bother me as much, whether it is done or not. But let me share another perspective. What if we approach our Lenten practices not so much with the intention of what we can do to transform ourselves, but rather with the intention of listening to what God wants to do in order to transform us?
