"I am delighted to announce that the Rev Justin Duckworth has been chosen as the next Bishop of Wellington.
Justin was nominated by an Electoral
College ably chaired by Bishop Richard Ellena, and Justin's nomination
has since been formally confirmed by the House of Bishops and members of
the General Synod.

Justin, who is 44, has been at the cutting edge of mission and ministry in Wellington for 25 years." |
Archdeacon Bernard Faull conducted a video interview with the new bishop-elect after his election, which is also at the link above. During the interview, the two speak of the the juxtaposition of the dreads and the mitre. Below is a close-up photo of Justin.
Justin's is a fascinating story with sometimes surprising twists and turns.
