The Diocese of Waikato and Taranaki is one of the thirteen dioceses and ''hui amorangi'' (Maori Dioceses) of the Anglican Church in Aotearoa, New Zealand and Polynesia.〔(About ) from Anglican Church in Aotearoa, New Zealand and Polynesia, 8 September 2011〕 The diocese covers the area from the Waikato to the area surrounding Mount Taranaki on the north island of New Zealand. The diocese was established in 1926 as the Diocese of Waikato, with Cecil Arthur Cherrington being the first bishop. In 2010, the name of the diocese was changed to the Diocese of Waikato and Taranaki. This reflects the structure of the diocese, with two bishoprics and two co-presiding bishops.〔(Welcome ) from Anglican Diocese of Waikato and Taranaki, retrieved 8 September 2011〕 The seat of the Bishop of Waikato is at St Peter's Cathedral in Hamilton. The current Bishop of Waikato is Helen-Ann Hartley. The seat of the Bishop of Taranaki is at the Taranaki Cathedral Church of St Mary. The incumbent Bishop of Taranaki is Philip Richardson (who is the archbishop of the New Zealand dioceses since 1 May 2013).〔(About ) from WaikatoTaranakiAnglican.org.nz, retrieved 19 December 2014〕 ==Bishops of Waikato== *Cecil Arthur Cherrington (1926–1951) *John Tristram Holland (1951–1968) *Allen Howard Johnston (1968–1980) *Brian Newton Davis (1980–1986) *Roger Adrian Herft (1986–1993) *David Moxon (1993–2013) *Helen-Ann Hartley (2014–present) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anglican Diocese of Waikato and Taranaki」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
