 We are a church of tremendous diversity, with people from all ages, many races and nations, and social backgrounds. We include single people, families, refugees, migrants, and long-established citizens of our host country.

We offer a place to belong and a spiritual home to respond to the reconciling love of Jesus Christ. We are part of the Diocese in Europe of The Church of England, and the worldwide Anglican Communion.

We are at the heart of Oslo at Møllergata 30.

 

Feast of St Edmund, 20th November

To celebrate this day, our patronal festival, we are sharing the recording of the Festive Service for the 140th Anniversary of the completion of St Edmund's, held on 30th June 2024. This includes music from the St Edmund's choir together with the Choral Scholars of St Martin-in-the-Fields. Bishop Kari Veiteberg, Bishop of Oslo, was the preacher. We are grateful to all involved in the service, and to Andrew Earis for the recording.

Blessings and congratulations to those confirmed at St Edmund's on Sunday, 12th May, 2024.
