CREATION OF TWO NEW ARCHDEACONRIES

The Anglican Diocese of Kafanchan marks a significant milestone in its mission and growth as it successfully inaugurated two new archdeaconries in just two days.

On Monday, 16th March 2026, the Bondon Archdeaconry was formally inaugurated in a well-attended service. The occasion drew the presence of notable dignitaries, including the District Head of Bondon and the Secretary of Kaura Local Government Area of Kaduna State, alongside clergy, church leaders, and members from across the diocese. It was a moment of joy, thanksgiving, and renewed commitment to the work of God.

Following closely, on Tuesday, 17th March 2026, the Boro Archdeaconry was also inaugurated in a similar spirit-filled service held at St. James’s Anglican Church, Boro. The atmosphere was filled with praise and expectation as the diocese expanded its structures to better serve its people and communities.

In both services, the Bishop, in his sermon, strongly emphasized that the creation of the new archdeaconries is not merely administrative, but deeply missional. He highlighted evangelism as the primary motivation, calling on clergy and laity alike to be more intentional in reaching out, spreading the Gospel, and impacting lives within their various communities.

These inaugurations reflect the Diocese’s commitment to growth, effective pastoral care, and the advancement of God’s kingdom. As new leadership structures are established, it is expected that the work of evangelism will be strengthened and the Church’s presence more deeply felt across the region.

To God be the glory for these great strides.

A Council to Lead the Future ….

AN IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT CONCERNING THE FUTURE LEADERSHIP OF THE GLOBAL ANGLICAN COMMUNION.

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

As we develop new structures for the Global Anglican Communion, the Gafcon Primates have dissolved the Gafcon Primates Council, which has faithfully led and served the Gafcon movement since 2008.

In a world where most organizations and individuals are concerned about keeping power and authority, the Gafcon Primates Council has made an unprecedented decision to share its stewardship of the Global Anglican Communion by creating the Global Anglican Council which includes primates, advisors, and guarantors, which will include bishops, clergy, and lay members each with full voting privileges.

This expanded Council reflects the willingness of the Primates to share their authority with a wider group of global Anglican leaders, both lay and clergy. While the Chairman of the Council will be a Primate, he will not be primus inter pares (first amongst equals).

Believing that the current Instruments of Communion no longer meet the needs of the majority of Anglicans around the world, the Global Anglican Communion is to be led by a conciliar structure. The Global Anglican Council has discerned that if we are to move past old structures, we must leave behind old titles as well.

I am also pleased to announce that Archbishop Laurent Mbanda was unanimously elected as Chairman of the Global Anglican Council, likewise Archbishop Miguel Uchoa was unanimously elected as Vice- Chairman and myself, Bishop Paul Donison, as General Secretary. Our terms will conclude at the end of GAFCON V in Athens in 2028.

Furthermore, the Council determined that Primates who retire from their Provincial office between GAFCON Assemblies may remain on the Council until the conclusion of the next GAFCON Assembly.

Today is a historic day for the Global Anglican Communion.

Indeed, the future has arrived!

Yours in Christ,

The Rt Revd Paul Donison
Gafcon General Secretary

Almighty and everlasting God,
who hast formed us from the dust of the earth,
and hast breathed into us the breath of life;
grant us grace, in this holy season of Lent,
to remember that we are but dust,
and unto dust we shall return.

Humble our proud hearts,
awaken us from the sleep of sin,
and turn us again to Thee,
that in penitence and faith
we may walk the way of the Cross,
and find in Thee our life everlasting.
Amen.

Temptation is real, but so is victory in Christ. Stand firm. Pray always. Hold on to God’s Word. 🙏✨

COLLECT FOR ASH WEDNESDAY

Almighty and merciful God, You hate nothing that You have made and forgive the sins of all those who are penitent. Create and make in us new and contrite hearts, that, we lamenting our sins and acknowledging our wretchedness, we may receive from You, the God of all mercy perfect forgiveness and peace; through Jesus Christ our Lord Amen.

“A broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.” – Psalm 51:17 David found restoration not because he was perfect, but because he repented sincerely. Today, God is calling us back — not to religion, not to rituals, but to genuine repentance. Return to Him with all your heart, and you will find mercy.

12/02/2026

His mercy endures forever. In Psalm 136, every verse echoes this truth God’s mercy never runs out. Through challenges, through victories, through uncertain times, His compassion remains constant. Have you paused today to thank Him?

10/02/2026

Victory is not in horses or chariots. Victory is in the name of the Lord.
