Biography of The Revd Canon Adewole Foluso Adedipe

The Revd Canon Adewole Foluso Adedipe is the Priest in Charge (Vicar) of the Parish of Bilston in the Diocese of Lichfield.

He trained both for ministry and as a Nurse in Nigeria, and also completed Cardiology Nursing training at Alexandria University, Egypt in 2012. Following his relocation to the United Kingdom in February 2020, he completed his postgraduate nurse education at the University of Wolverhampton. He was ordained Deacon in 2012 and Priest in 2013.

 

With a heart for pastoral care, Church Planting, and youth work, he has served faithfully in a variety of contexts. He has planted two churches and, with the Bishop of Lichfield’s permission to officiate, began ministry in Wolverhampton in 2020. He was later formally licensed as Assistant Minister of St Luke’s Church, Blakenhall, serving there from 2023 until 2025.

Alongside his ministry, Foluso worked in the NHS as a Nurse between 2020 and 2025, rising to the role of Senior Clinical Nurse Specialist in Heart Failure and Registered Independent Nurse Prescriber. In June 2025, he gave up his professional role in nursing to answer God’s call into full-time ministry, serving the people of Bilston.

He served as a member of the Board of Governors of St Luke’s Church of England (Aided) Primary School, Blakenhall, Wolverhampton, from 2023 to 2025. He is also an Honorary Canon in the Diocese of Ife in the Church of Nigeria, a member province of the Anglican Communion. Foluso is currently exploring further postgraduate theological education at Oak Hill College, London.

He is married to Stella and they have four children: Samuel, Esther, Emmanuel, and Nathaniel. In his personal life, he enjoys reading and singing. Above all, he is passionate about proclaiming the Gospel and serving the people of Bilston with faith and compassion.

Our Worship Group

We are Worship Group and are an important part of Worship in our school. To become part of Worship Group, we write a letter of application and say why we wanted to be in Worship Group. Mrs Lewis met with us to talk about what our role in school would be. We are timetabled each day, to support whichever adult is leading Worship by welcoming everyone to Worship and lighting three candles. The three candles represent the Trinity - God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Following Anglican traditions we will end Worship by saying the dismissal. One of our first tasks was to deliver our Harvest donations to The Well - a Christian based foodbank in Wolverhampton. Please see the pictures below. We are very proud to represent our school.
