A Place Befitting the Phrase “Gospel Hospitality”

WHAT DRIVES US

Promoting social interaction, intellectual curiosity, & spiritual honesty.

The Oxford Lodge is devoted to the renewal of the collegiate experience, one cappuccino, one conversation, one great book, one game of spikeball at a time. As a ministry of place, we aim to cultivate an environment conducive to the cultural and spiritual formation of students, a place befitting the phrase “gospel hospitality.”

Make meaningful connections.

There is vibrant Christian community to be found at the University of Mississippi—and we invite you to learn and grow with us.  Oxford Lodge programs feature gatherings, groups, and academic cohorts where students  and faculty can deepen both faith and authentic friendship.

Visit our home on the edge of the Oxford city limits.

Our doors are open to you at the Oxford Lodge, our  home for community and hospitality only 5 minutes from campus. Discover a place for meals, study, and gatherings of all sizes—designed for you.

Our vision:

Author and theologian Henri Nowen famously said, '“Hospitality means, primarily, the creation of a free space where the stranger can enter and become a friend.”

At the Oxford Lodge, we seek to offer a space where students may enter in, form friendships, and invest in a place that can act as a home during their college years. It starts with our space, 4361 Old Sardis Road, on the edge of the city limits. Our dream for this space involves all the accessories for student flourishing, academically, spiritually, and artistically: a front porch, stacked libraries, deep couches, and open studio spaces. A house where students can study, drink coffee, talk football, play spikeball, snack, listen to music, procrastinate, and co-create. A house safe enough to take a nap and interesting enough to promote reading, writing, deep thought, prayer, and relationship. A house that combines the valuable traits of a greek house + honors college + library + cafe + camp lodge, in an inclusive and creative environment. A house where Christian students can ask questions, and students open to spiritual things can explore the world from a Christian perspective. A house that Oxford students can call home.
