In October 1884 Pusey House was opened as a memorial to Edward Bouverie Pusey, Regius Professor of Hebrew and Canon of Christ Church, who was for forty years a figurehead of the Oxford Movement. According to its founding documents, the House exists to promote theological study and holiness of life, and to provide spiritual counsel and comfort to members of the University. Today, 140 years later, the community of Pusey House embraces not only members of the University, but all who avail themselves of the work and ministry of the House within the Church of England and beyond. In working to renew the Church of England’s Catholic life and witness, Pusey and his colleagues also sought to understand and respond to the most profound needs of society in their day. One of the basic principles of the Oxford Movement was that the life of the mind and the life of prayer belong together, and that holiness of life overflows in ministries of love and service. In different ways and in a different context, Pusey House today seeks to embody these founding principles. Please join us at any of our events, to mark the occasion.
