Archbishop’s statement

Moore College is the theological college of the Diocese of Sydney. Yet it is much more than that. It is a centre known and loved around the world for biblical, gospel-directed thinking and ministry practice. For 165 years it has been preparing people for gospel ministry, providing them with the best available theological education and shaping Christian character and conviction through the College community experience. In so doing it is the lifeblood of the diocese, but its ministry stretches across Australia and across the globe. I am thankful for my own theological education at Moore which prepared me well for ministry in each of the contexts to which the Lord has led me. I know the same is true for many other graduates of the College serving in varied ministries around the world. I am thankful too for the way the College is growing and continually improving what it does, all the while remaining steadfastly committed to the authority of Scripture, the centrality of the cross, the gospel message of repentance and faith, and an understanding of Christian ministry that is driven by these crucial truths. I warmly commend the College to your continued prayers and support.

The Most Rev Kanishka Raffel Archbishop of Sydney
