The Anglican Diocese of Nelson,
including the Nelson, Waimea, Marlborough, West Coast and Buller regions.

The Anglican Diocese of Nelson is a family of evangelical churches shaped by Anglican tradition, covering the top third of the South Island of New Zealand. We are strongly committed to carrying the mission of Christ forward, engaging in contemporary ministry through the local church. We have a vision to strengthen local churches, but also to plant new kinds of churches and ministries wherever there is a need. We want to obey Christ's Great Commission to make disciples of all nations.

The Diocese naturally divides into four regional deaneries - Mawhera in the west, Marlborough in the east and Nelson and Waimea in the north. Of our 26 parishes, many serve rural areas with scattered populations and multiple towns. We also have large churches in the provincial towns and a magnificent cathedral in the centre of Nelson City.
