“I am sure the Anglican Church of Australia will benefit from Mrs Wenden’s years of experience as Chair, Director and Executive Officer of different not-for-profit and commercial organisations. The Anglican Church of Australia faces challenges, and Mrs Wenden’s leadership will be critical in addressing them. I am sure the church in Australia will be praying for and wishing her every success,” said Bishop Mark Short, Primate, Anglican Church of Australia.
Juliet has been involved with Anglican Super for most of the past 25 years, more recently as Chair. Her husband, Richard, is Rector of Seaforth Anglican Church on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, and she has three teenage children.
“I’ve worked with almost all the Dioceses in my time with Anglican Super and look forward to renewing that relationship in this new position,” Mrs Wenden said. “My immediate priority will be working with the Dioceses across the country to prepare for General Synod in Melbourne during August.”
The NCCA President Rev Gilmore along with Liz Stone, NCCA General Secretary, join with Bishop Mark in wishing Mrs Wenden every success and blessing and look forward to meeting her when she commences her work on February 9th.
“We congratulate outgoing General Secretary, Mrs Anne Hywood on her 11 years of service and wish her all the very best for her next endeavours,” said Bishop Mark Short.
Rev John Gilmore expressed his sincere appreciation on behalf of the NCCA for the valuable contribution Anne made as a director on the NCCA board for 7 years.
