Victoria Matthews 8th Bishop of Christchurch

Images from Saturday’s Installation of the 8th Bishop of Christchurch, Bishop Victoria Matthews, speak for themselves. A thousand people packed the cathedral for a warm welcome which included Ngai Tahu and the Hui Amorangi O Te Waipounamu and Tikanga Pasefika. Bishop Mark MacDonald, National Indigenous Bishop of the Anglican Church of Canada, preached.

Photographs sourced from the Anglican Diocese of Christchurch website and Anglican Taonga website. Check back as I may obtain further significant photographs.
