Rob and staff

Rob Munro has become the new Bishop of Ebbsfleet, the Church of England bishop with delegated oversight of 147 complementarian evangelical parishes.

Previously Rector of Cheadle, Cheshire, Rob trained for ministry at Oak Hill College and studied for his doctorate at Reformed Theological Seminary in the USA. He has also served on General Synod, is a member of the Dioceses’ Commission, chairs the House of Clergy for Chester Diocese, is the Chair of the Fellowship of Word & Spirit, and is on the Councils of Latimer Trust and Church Society.

Rob said: ‘I was immensely grateful for the large number of people who came to be part of the service, overcoming the challenges of train strikes and (from a northerner’s perspective) the remote location in Canterbury. A particular highlight for me was the challenging message from Jason Roach (Director of Ministries at London City Mission), who preached powerfully of the need to “look up” to God as the source and focus for ministry.’
