From New Zealand-
Anglican Reverend Andy Carley of St Paul’s in
Papanui has revealed he will help establish a breakaway diocese in the
wake of the same-sex marriage blessings saga.
He said nine clergy from seven parishes in
Canterbury had resigned and would start to form the diocese, separate
from the synod of the Anglican Church of Aotearoa, New Zealand and
Polynesia.
The parishes are St John’s Latimer Square, St
Stephen’s in Shirley, St John’s in Woolston, St Saviour’s and St
Nicholas in Barrington, St Christopher’s in Avonhead and St Mark’s in
Rakaia.
“We will establish a new extra-provincial Anglican
diocese, one recognised by the majority of the world’s Anglicans, but is
separate from the current New Zealand Anglican diocese,” he said.
