Our purpose

The Anglican Diocese of Christchurch is a regional jurisdiction within the Anglican Church in Aotearoa, New Zealand and Polynesia. We exist to serve the people in our region by working towards the Global Anglican Communion’s five marks of mission to:

1. Proclaim the Good News of the Kingdom
2. Teach, baptise and nurture new believers
3. Respond to human need by loving service
4. Transform unjust structures of society, to challenge violence of every kind and pursue peace and reconciliation
5. Strive to safeguard the integrity of creation, and sustain and renew the life of the earth. Within this mission, our Diocese has three strategic priorities that guide our work:
(a) Young Leaders: Raise up; encourage; educate; appoint and enable young people as leaders in our Diocese. (b) Christ-Centred Mission: Christ is both our centre and the One we serve. We become Christ-like by furthering the Kingdom and further the Kingdom by becoming Christ-like. (c) Faithful Stewardship: Of the Christian faith; environment; Diocesan properties and finances; time; talent and our heritage. Stewardship of the Christian faith includes how we offer theological education. Get the latest news and updates via our website, this page, or by subscribing to our regular e-Life newsletter.
