The BBC reports on evangelism efforts in the Mother Church.
Some 3,000 churches are taking part in Back to Church Sunday to encourage people who once attended to return. Bishops have travelled to football grounds, shops and even down a mine in a bid to boost their congregations.
In Nottinghamshire, Bishop of Sherwood, the Rt Rev Tony Porter, went underground to meet miners at Welbeck Colliery.
Bishop of Doncaster, the Rt Rev Cyril Ashton, donned his motorbike leathers and rode to four areas of the Diocese of Sheffield to promote the Church to fellow bikers.
