Brother John Church

Brother John Church was born in London and raised a Catholic by an English father and Dutch mother. He first encountered the Dominicans at Blackfriars while studying Classics at Oxford, and entered the novitiate in 2018 after a year working in London. His attraction to religious life initially grew out of time spent working with the Missionaries of Charity, which then crystallized into a Dominican vocation through a desire to integrate the contemplative life with preaching and study. He’s currently based in Oxford studying at the Blackfriars studium.
