Pray with us as we search for
our new Archbishop  

For the members of our Synod, as it elects a new Archbishop:  

Loving Lord Jesus, who seeks for your people to be one,   
as you and the Father are one: grant to the members of our Synod   
the same unity of heart and spirit that is your will  
as they elect a new Archbishop for our Diocese.  
Enable them to discharge their weighty duties with care,  
each member voting without fear or favour for the person   
who, before God, they believe ought to be chosen as our chief pastor.  
For you are alive, with the Father and the Spirit, now and forever. Amen.

The Anglican Diocese of Melbourne is a place where the dignity of each person is recognised, respected and fostered and is committed to ensuring the safety of vulnerable persons, particularly children. The Diocese has zero tolerance for child abuse and will treat very seriously all allegations and concerns.  

In line with this commitment to child safety, the Diocese has put in place policies and procedures to uphold the Victorian Child Safe Standards. These standards aim to promote child safety, prevent child abuse and set up processes to properly respond to allegations of child abuse.  Further information regarding the requirements of the Diocese can be found here: https://www.melbourneanglican.org.au/safe_ministry_documents/ In particular, any candidates will be required to have a valid Working with Children Check and to undergo Safe Ministry Checks and regular Safe Ministry training, and to be under Professional Supervision.
