Saturday 14 November 2026
Launch of the New Strategic Vision
Saturday 14 November 2026, 9.30am-1pm
We are in the midst of the process of discernment that will result in our new strategic vision once Vision 2026 expires next year.
Therefore, on 14 November 2026 all will be invited to an open meeting of the Diocesan Synod when the new vision will be formally launched.
The event will be live-streamed for those unable to attend in person.
