Our Mission
The mission of the Anglican Diocese of Adelaide is to nurture a Christ-centred community built on love, compassion and spiritual growth.
We serve both our members and the wider community through inclusive worship, thoughtful education and caring outreach.
Grounded in the values of justice, healing and welcome, we walk alongside those in need and stand with them in times of challenge and change.
Faith for us is not just a set of beliefs, it’s a way of living shaped by Christ’s example.
We hold to the Anglican tradition, drawing from scripture, prayer, and community to guide our journey.
With open hearts and open minds, we welcome questions, honour diversity, and seek to follow Jesus with grace and courage.
Our History
The story of the Diocese stretches back to 1847, grounded in faith and shaped by the people of South Australia.
Through seasons of change and growth, the Church has remained a steady presence, offering guidance, care and connection.
From its earliest days, it has stood for compassion, justice and welcome, walking alongside generations in both challenge and celebration.
