About Oswestry Christian Bookshop:

We operate in the market town of Oswestry, Shropshire, on the border of Wales. Our 27 year-old business is situated in an attractive 18th Century listed building. Ten years prior to the opening of our shop we ran the business from a Christian bookstall in the local market, and at local agricultural shows. The move to the present building was due to the Vision of the members of the local evangelical church, to make available on a daily basis access to Bibles, books and Christian resources.

The Vision has grown and seen expansion into many areas, for example working with churches of all denominations, educational establishments, and the general public.

Under the umbrella of our charity we have seen the establishment of the Kingswell Centre. This is a Youth and Family Centre, which is a partnership between Spurgeon's Child Care and ourselves. A more recent development has enabled us to offer office space within our building to the ‘Churches Together in Oswestry’ Schools Worker.

Opportunity to browse and order literature is helped by the serving of refreshments within the retail area of the shop. Our ground floor showroom has a wide variety of books gifts and resources. The first floor showroom has a wide range of children's books and gifts, also incorporated is a comprehensive display of over 1,000 second-hand Christian books.

Don't only visit us on our Website please come and have a cup of tea or coffee and enjoy the happy atmosphere that so many of our customers mention.
