The Story

ADJust: Diocese of Auckland Young Anglicans for Social Justice is a task-focused group arising out of the Bishop’s charge at the 2018 Anglican Diocese of Auckland Synod, shared by Bishop Ross Bay and the late Bishop Jim White.

“We think we need a fresh emphasis on our engagement in the social justice space. Indeed, we think it is time for a complete reboot and with encouragement and s

upport we think this is an area that we should trust young people to take a leading role in our Diocese.”

After a gathering of young people across the Diocese on 28 May 2019, a core team has been built around this Charge to develop a social and ecological justice group driven by Anglicans under 40. We are guided by the 5 Marks of Mission with a strong emphasis on supporting and engaging the church on social and ecological justice issues. As per the Charge of the Bishops, the purpose of this group is not only in the doing of social and ecological justice, but also to lead the Diocese towards greater engagement in these spaces. The group functions at times as a think tank and at other times, as mobilisers and organisers. Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqfstdeQseyrHDDW_q4r74A

Young Anglicans, leading the Diocese in social justice.

ADJust: Diocese of Auckland Young Anglicans for Social Justice is a group arising out of the Bishop’s Charge at the 2018 Anglican Diocese of Auckland Synod, shared by Bishop Ross Bay and Bishop Jim White: “We think we need a fresh emphasis on our engagement in the social justice space. Indeed, we think it is time for a complete reboot and with encouragement and support we think this is an area that we should trust young people to take a leading role in our Diocese.” After a gathering of young people from across the Diocese on 28 May 2019, a core team has been built around this Charge to develop a social justice group driven by young people (under 40 years of age). We are guided by the 5 Marks of Mission with a strong emphasis on supporting and engaging the church on social justice issues. As per the Charge of the Bishops, the purpose of this group is not only in the doing of social justice, but also to lead the Diocese towards a greater engagement in social justice. The group will function at times as a think tank and at other times as mobilisers and organisers.
