Sydney to ordain 40 men, 6 women

St Andrew’s Anglican Cathedral, in George Street will see another very large ordination tomorrow, Saturday 3rd February, commencing at 10.00am.

This is, once again, the largest ordination service to be held in the Anglican Church of Australia this year, and indeed in other Christian denominations.

Dr Peter Jensen, the Archbishop of Sydney will ordain 40 men and six women candidates to the Diaconate in the service, and one other women will be commissioned as a Diocesan Lay Worker.

The Special Preacher at the Service will be the Rev Dr John Woodhouse, Principal of Moore Theological College where the candidates have spent either three or four years theological training in preparation for their ordained ministry. Read more (scroll down page)
