“Names are being put forward as nominees for the Synod that will elect the next Archbishop of Sydney.

The Archbishop’s summons was issued on January 25 laying out the times, dates and venue for a one-day ‘ordinary’ session of Synod, followed by the Election Synod. Due to changing COVID restrictions in the past few months, the summons differs from what was originally foreshadowed last year.

The message, sent to all eligible Synod members, calls them to an ordinary session of Synod on Monday, May 3. … The sessions from May 4-7 have been set aside for the Election Synod, as needed. …

Archbishop Glenn Davies will retire on Friday, March 26. His term was extended from his original retirement date of July 2020.”
