ANGLICAN CHURCH
GENERAL SYNOD IN NAPIER OPENING TO-MORROW The General Synod of the Church of England in New Zealand will open in Napier to-morrow. The members of the Synod come from all over New Zealand, each diocese sending its bishop, three clergy and four laymen, and from beyond New Zealand the Bishops of Melanesia and Polynesia with other representatives from their Dioceses. As this General Synod is held only every three years and each New Zealand diocese has it in turn. the.re will not, in the ordinary course of events, be another General Synod in Napiej for 21 years. The last one was in Christchurch at the time of the Hawke’s Bay earthquake; in fact, the Hawke’s Bay representatives were travelling south in the express when the' earthquake occurred, and, of course, they went no further.
