Over the weekend 9 to 12 March 2012, Bishop Jan-Olof Johannson of Växjö Diocese paid his first visit to Oxford together with the Vice Chair of the Växjö Synod, an Area Dean and the Diocesan Communications Officer.
Follow this link for a report on the visit.
Recommended reading Bishop Jan-Olof Johannson's Pastoral Letter, in the form of 'postcards' addressed to significant people in his life story and to church people today. A fascinating and at times very moving read. A pdf version is available for download in English here. |
On this section of the PWM web site, we aim to show how the Växjö/Oxford relationship has developed, what is happening now, and to give a picture of the Diocese of Växjö, its history and of what is happening there today. For this, we will be using translated material from the Diocese of Växjö’s own web site and the Diocesan Magazine ‘Missivet’. Do check out what Växjö Diocese is doing with their adaptation of Oxford's 'Living Faith' programme via the 'Living Faith in Växjö' menu item (left).
Keep in touch!
