Our
minister, is Catherine Oxenford-Grant.
Catherine started with us on January 1, 2018. Catherine was born in Sault Ste.
Marie Ontario to English parents, Derek (deceasd) and
Miriam Oxenford. Her younger sister, Josie Duguay still lives in “the Sault”. Catherine was raised
in the Anglican church but joined the United Church of Canada in 1986. ‘Cat’ has a classical musical
education including vocal performance, piano and organ from the Royal
Conservatory in Toronto. She worked as
a music teacher and professional church musician for many years, as Music
Associate at Parkdale United Church in Ottawa from
1981-1997 and Minister of Music at Wall Street United Church in Brockville
from 2001-2014. Cat also holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Religious Studies
from Carleton University. Feeling that music was no longer
enough, and in response to what she calls a “spiritual nudge” Catherine
entered seminary at Queen’s Theological College in 2011 and completed her
Master of Divinity degree in 2015. She completed a 24-month internship
ministering to the three churches in Rideau Pastoral Charge. During her
internship, Cat completed an intensive 9-month program in Pastoral Care and
is a member of the Canadian Association for Spiritual Care (CASC). She will
be ordained at Annual Conference in April of this year. Catherine has been married to Kurt
Grant for 27 years. Kurt is recently retired from the Canadian Armed Forces.
He is an avid fly-fisherman and motorcycle enthusiast. He now writes
full-time with his next book expected out in the fall of 2018. Kurt is also
an amazing cook for which Cat is extremely thankful! They live in Brockville
with their two cats and dog. Cat’s hobbies are perennial gardening, reading,
watching old movies and decorating. She is a member of
the Brockville Community Choir. Catherine can be reached at her office at
613 374-2777, and on her cell at 1 613-246-7287. Her email address is cat.oxenfordgrant@gmail.com |
