  • Media Statement 16 March 2017 Statement from Bishop Peter Stuart
    Media Statement 16 March 2017 Statement from Bishop Peter Stuart On behalf of the Anglican Diocese of Newcastle I express our considerable sadness at the news that Greg Thompson won't be returning to ministry as the Anglican Bishop of Newcastle. In his short time as our Bishop he has been the catalyst for deep cultural change around the protection of children and the support of victims of abuse. He called us to face our past and in doing so shape a healthy future. This will be his enduring legacy. As part of shaping a healthy future, we worked together in November to initiate independent external reviews of diocesan governance and the professional standards and redress processes. These reviews are well underway and will continue the crucial work of transforming the Diocese. Bishop Greg has led the Diocese to greater health. In 2013, the Diocesan family rejoiced that a ‘son of the diocese’ had been elected as the Diocesan Bishop. The clergy and people have delighted in his ministry in parishes, at the diocesan convention and synod. We have felt deep anguish for him and his family as we learnt of the abuse he experienced and the rejection by some in the Diocese. Throughout his ministry he has been committed to hearing the voices at the grassroots and empowering the vulnerable and people in need. Drawing on the great treasures in the teachings of Jesus, he has been unafraid of speaking strongly to the powerful to ensure transparency and promote justice. We are deeply thankful for Bishop Greg Thompson’s ministry as Anglican Bishop of Newcastle.

  • Archbishop of Perth Installation MEDIA RELEASE
    MEDIA RELEASE 10 February 2018 ANGLICANS WELCOME NEW ARCHBISHOP KAY GOLDSWORTHY AO The Right Reverend Goldsworthy AO, is today (Saturday 10 February) being installed as the eighth Archbishop of Perth, and Metropolitan of the Province of Western Australia, signaling a historic moment for the Anglican Church as the first woman in Australia and the worldwide Anglican Communion, elected to the role. Archbishop Goldsworthy’s installation service at St George’s Cathedral followed an extensive eight- month selection process that was announced in August last year. Anglican Primate, Archbishop Philip Freier has warmly welcomed the new Archbishop to the role. “Bishop Kay Goldsworthy continues her pioneering series of appointments as the first woman to be appointed an Archbishop in the Anglican Communion,” Archbishop Freier said. “She will bring her distinct gifts to bear upon this important role and goes to it with my support and encouragement.” The Right Reverend Kate Wilmot, from the Anglican Diocese of Perth, said the installation is an exciting moment for the church. “The installation of a new Archbishop is always a memorable and historic occasion, but we are also conscious that this is the first time an Australian Archbishop has been a woman. “Bishop Kay Goldsworthy knows Perth well but has also had experience in other Australian dioceses, has ministered for more than three decades in three dioceses and brings wisdom and an ability to communicate and collaborate with diverse members of the church community. “Bishop Kay has a long history of service to this diocese, and is an experienced church leader, having spent a decade in episcopal ministry.

  • Statement from the Bishop of Newcastle
    STATEMENT BY THE ANGLICAN BISHOP OF NEWCASTLE THE RIGHT REVEREND DR PETER STUART BISHOP RICHARD APPLEBY 3 December 2019 Summary • Bishop Peter Stuart accepted finding that Bishop Appleby not fit to be employed by any church body without conditions • Bishop Appleby cannot engage in any ministry as a bishop nor present himself as a bishop in the Diocese of Newcastle for 3 years • Bishop Appleby must satisfy the Director of Professional Standards about his knowledge of and commitment to reporting disclosures of child sexual abuse before being able to exercise ministry as a bishop. • This decision is being communicated to all Diocesan Bishops in Australia and all clergy in the Diocese of Newcastle Detailed Statement Bishop Richard Appleby was the Auxiliary Bishop of the Anglican Diocese of Newcastle from 1983 until 1992 serving Bishop Alfred Holland. Bishop Appleby went on to serve as the Bishop of the Northern Territory from 1992 until 1999 when he became an Assistant Bishop in the Diocese of Brisbane until 2006. He administered the Diocese of Brisbane in 2001. During the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse a witness known as CKA spoke of the serious sexual abuse perpetrated against him, when he was aged between 10 and 14 years, old by the Reverend George Parker (deceased) in the years 1971 - 1975. CKA’s account is harrowing both because of the abuse itself and the subsequent response of officials of the Diocese to CKA and his family. CKA gave evidence to the Royal Commission that he disclosed the sexual abuse by George Parker to Bishop Appleby in 1984.
