The fastest-growing church? Maybe not what you think

A new report from the Bible Society has revealed that the fastest-growing church in the UK is the Chinese Church.

In just the last two years, there has been 29% growth in the Chinese Church in the UK – a large jump from the 7% growth they’d seen in the previous ten years. This is largely due to people emigrating from Hong Kong to Britain.

Before the report was published, the Pentecostal Church was considered the fastest growing denomination in the UK – however, in the same period of two years (2021–2023), it grew by a comparatively slow 2.8% (The Times).
