Who We Are

Come Home For Life

Welcome to The Church on Oxford Hill. 

Wherever you are on your journey towards knowing God, we want you to know that you are welcome, and that you have a place to belong.

You can discover who Jesus is, within a community who will care for you.

The Oxford Hill family is passionate about the presence of God; His presence in our lives changes everything.

We gather Sunday mornings as our expression of worship, and community extends through mid-week events or life groups.

We value every individual, and seek to make space for everyone to find their place of belonging and service within their area of giftedness and passion.

We look forward to meeting you!

The Church on Oxford Hill is a self-governing body affiliated with the British Columbia Baptist Conference (BCBC) and Baptist General Conference of Canada (BGC).
In 1966, The Church on Oxford Hill, then known as Peace Arch Baptist, was a church-plant from within the conference. We find great value in being a part of a greater body of believers, where over 30 churches in BC alone all affiliate with the BGC. In partnering with other pastors, leaders and churches in our region, we find encouragement, support, as well as accountability. We are better together!
