Diocesan Handbook

Welcome to this edition of the Diocese of Christchurch’s Handbook. Included is the Diocesan Mission Action Plan (as agreed and adopted by Synod 2021). This plan will offer guidance and direction for our major Diocesan boards and committees, as well as for Diocesan staff as we work to support and strengthen the ministry units of our Diocese.

Within our Handbook is direction for making decisions that are made in an orderly way, whether in Synod, Vestry, or parish meetings, so that we are faithful stewards of our amazing resources and faithful in the gospel Jesus calls us to proclaim in every era of human history.
