The Oxford Good Stewards Trust supports churches and Christian workers in the Diocese of Oxford, with a clear preference for evangelical ministry aligned with its Statement of Faith. Its grants appear aimed at strengthening local churches through minister deployment, church plants, worship facilities, pastoral care, and outreach/evangelism. The grantee list suggests a focus on Anglican and evangelical church networks, including church revitalization and new congregation development.
Open, trustee-reviewed grant programme with applications accepted year-round; grants are awarded on a discretionary basis rather than through a competitive annual cycle. Support appears to be targeted and mission-specific, likely varying by project and church need rather than using fixed public grant sizes.
Apply directly through the OGST Grant Programme at any time; proposals are considered when received. Strong applications should show alignment with the Trust’s Statement of Faith, be rooted in ministry within the Diocese of Oxford (or clearly trustee-approved elsewhere), and clearly explain how the funding will strengthen preaching, evangelism, pastoral care, or church planting.
