Robert Ronald Atwell (born 3 August 1954) is a British Anglican bishop, writer, and former Benedictine monk. Since April 2014, he has been the Bishop of Exeter. From 2008 to 2014, he was Bishop of Stockport, a suffragan bishop in the Diocese of Chester.

Early life and education

Atwell was born on 3 August 1954 in Ilford, Essex, United Kingdom.[1][2] He was educated at Wanstead High School, a comprehensive school in Wanstead, London.[2] He studied theology at St John's College, Durham, and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree in 1975.[5][3] In 1976, he entered Westcott House, Cambridge to train for the priesthood.[2][4] During his training, he spent a period of time in Rome studying at the Venerable English College, a Roman Catholic seminary, and at the Pontifical Gregorian University, a pontifical university.[5] Following his ordination, he continued his studies and completed a Master of Letters (MLitt) degree from Durham University in 1979.[3]

Ordained ministry

Atwell was ordained in the Church of England: first, made a deacon at Petertide 1978 (25 June), by Gerald Ellison, Bishop of London, at St Paul's Cathedral,[5] and then ordained a priest the following St Peter's Day (29 June 1979) by Bill Westwood, Bishop of Edmonton, at St James Muswell Hill.[6] His career began with a curacy at John Keble Church, Mill Hill in the Diocese of London from 1978 to 1981.[3][7] From 1981 to 1987, he was chaplain of Trinity College, Cambridge and a lecturer in patristics.[2][5]

In 1987, he entered the Order of St Benedict (OSB) and was granted Permission to officiate in the Diocese of Oxford.[3] He spent ten years as a Benedictine monk at Burford Priory in Oxfordshire.[8][9] Though he left the OSB in 1998, he maintains his link with the Benedictines as an oblate of Bec Abbey in Normandy, France.[5]

In 1998, he left the OSB to return to parish ministry as Vicar of St Mary's Church, Primrose Hill, an Anglo Catholic parish in the Diocese of London.[5][10] He held this role from 1998 until joining the episcopate in 2008.[3][11]

Episcopal ministry

Atwell was consecrated a bishop at York Minster on 24 June 2008. He was welcomed into the Diocese of Chester as Bishop of Stockport on 27 June 2008 at Chester Cathedral.[12][13]

On 21 January 2014, it was announced that Atwell would be translated to be the Bishop of Exeter.[14] The confirmation of his election occurred on 30 April 2014.[15] He was installed at Exeter Cathedral on 5 July 2014.[16]

Views

Atwell supports the ordination of women to the priesthood and episcopate.[17]
