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).
Our mission is quite simply to share God's love in and to our community.
With our times of worship together as a whole church and in small groups, in our learning together and the many opportunities to share time together in social events we seek to encourage and support each other and together and as individuals to reach out to others and by our friendship and charitable giving to change lives.
We also challenge ourselves to care for the environment by encouraging wildlife in the churchyard (an oasis of calm for all) and by limiting waste, limiting our use of energy and recycling all that we can.
