LEADERSHIP

The Cathedral has two oversight bodies, the Chapter and the Vestry.

  • The Cathedral Chapter is concerned with the Diocesan and community-facing ministries.
  • The Vestry is responsible for the parish ministry and day-to-day running of the Cathedral.
 

The parish Earthquake Strengthening Committee was disbanded at the 2025 AGM and that work was transferred to the responsibility of the Waiapu Board of Diocesan Trustees.
