Welcome

We are Church of England Birmingham. A diverse and growing mix of People & Places focused on Growing Churches at the Heart of Every Community, seeking to share the love of Christ with all.

On 31 August, CofE Birmingham welcomed The Reverend Dr Michael Volland, currently Principal of Ridley Hall, Cambridge, as Bishop-Designate, nominated in succession to The Right Reverend David Urquhart, following his retirement from the office of CofE Birmingham’s Diocesan Bishop in October 2022.

The Rt. Revd. Anne Hollinghurst, Bishop of Aston, Suffragan Bishop CofE Birmingham, continues to serve as commissary bishop or ‘Acting Bishop of Birmingham’,  as authorised by the Archbishop of Canterbury, until the Bishop-Designate’s Installation.
