In the charity's own words

OIKOS Church seeks to advance the Christian faith in the area of north Birmingham specifically the ward of Erdington. This is achieved in part by the provision of a church gathering held on Sundays, and local smaller gatherings of members, who meet together to share life together, and to reach their neighbours for Christ. OIKOS Church also runs a community cafe on Erdington high street.
