The first bishop of Australia's newest diocese was consecrated in 1968. The cathedral church of the diocese is Christ Church Cathedral, Darwin. The fifth bishop, Greg Thompson, resigned to become the Bishop of Newcastle, New South Wales. In June 2014 the diocese announced the appointment of Greg Anderson as the sixth bishop.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title = The bishop )〕 The dean of Christ Church Cathedral is Keith Joseph. ==Cathedral== Christ Church in Darwin became a cathedral when the Northern Territory diocese was created in 1968 out of the larger Diocese of Carpentaria. The building was almost totally destroyed by Cyclone Tracy in 1974.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Christ Church Cathedral, Darwin - Our History )〕 The present cathedral was completed in 1977 on the site of the previous building, incorporating the surviving porch of the old church. The porch had been constructed in 1944 by the Australian Navy. The back wall of the new octagonal building was formed from reclaimed stone from the old church. Many of the treasures of the original building were recovered and repaired.〔 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「Diocese of the Northern Territory」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
