Dear Editor,
Many readers will have been moved by the news (en, February) of Oxford’s North Gate Hall being acquired by the Oxford Evangelical Presbyterian Church. Moved, that is, to thanksgiving and prayer, mixed in with a good dose of nostalgia among former Christian Union (OICCU) members, whose student years were so enriched by weekly and daily events in that familiar building.
There may be other (younger!) former members who keep in touch. I for one belong to those 80–85 year olds whose memories go back 60 years and who still share an annual Newsletter. Our latest version, dated February 2023, has 20 entries, including some ‘doubles’ where a spouse also features.
