| Changing Attitude has reached the bottom right hand corner of the
world. A branch is now alive and well in Auckland, New Zealand. With
two members of the Archbishop of Canterbury's Commission coming from
Auckland, it is fortuitous that a Changing Attitude group has come
into being over the last three months.
Three meetings have been held and six members of the Changing
Attitude group were invited to join a support group for John Paterson,
the Bishop of Auckland and Jenny Plane-Te Paa, Te AhorangiTe Rau
Kahikatea which translated from Maori means the principal of the Maori
theological college which is part of the College of St John the
Evangelist. They are both on the Archbishop's Commission and the
support group met to advise, support and reflect on the task of the
Commission and the part that Bishop John and Jenny would have in it.
Also the Changing Attitude group has been invited to be part of the
steering group organising an ongoing conversation/dialogue on issues
of homosexuality which is being set up in the diocese.
