Training & Ordination
Ways we are seeking to raise up and send out excellent leaders.
Training and Ordaining New Leaders
Calling, educating, ordaining and training new leaders and clergy is an essential element for the growth of the Church and spreading the good news of Jesus. As a diocese, we want to be multiplying leaders and churches for this mission. You can learn more about how we are seeking to train, ordain and send new leaders below.
Theological Education
To be effective and healthy in their ministry, leaders need to be well educated and trained in the faith and in their areas of ministry. Packer College is our diocesan theological college and seminary and continues to grow and develop in order to serve both lay and clergy students.
Ordination Process
If someone is considering applying for ordination in our diocese we have more information here.
Curacy Program
One of our central values as a diocese is having equipped and supported clergy who are qualified, cared for and well prepared for ministry. One of the ways we are seeking to pursue this value is by helping provide young clergy opportunities to minister in well established parishes as curates under a more senior clergy member who is able to act as an instructor and mentor.
