Another New Zealand Diocese Rejects Covenant

Apparently it’s diocesan synod time in New Zealand Our friend Bosco Peters has posted another summary of actions of synods in the Anglican Church in Aotearoa, New Zealand & Polynesia. At the end of his report is the news that the Diocese of Waiapu passed the following resolution by a virtually unanimous vote:

The Diocese of Waiapu affirms its desire to remain a member of the Anglican Communion, valuing highly our common faith, mission, tradition and liturgy. We do not believe that the proposed Anglican Communion Covenant will enhance the life of the Communion and request that the General Synod/Te Hinota Whanui declines to sign the Covenant.
