Colin was ordained priest in 1998 and served his curacy in the nearby parish of Streetly before serving as priest in Charge of St. Gregory the Great, Wednesfield and for the last 19 years as Vicar of Rushall.

Originally from Studley, Warwickshire Colin worked as a lawyer in the City of London before training for ordination at Ripon College Cuddesdon, Oxford.

Colin believes his ministry has two main elements (apart from the obvious ones of running two churches, preaching and leading worship) and they are pilgrimage (walking with others on the journey of faith) and hospitality (table fellowship).
