Peter Jensen

The Most Rev Peter Jensen is Archbishop of the Anglican Church, Diocese of Sydney, and Metropolitan of the Province of New South Wales.
Dr Peter Jensen was elected the 11th Archbishop of Sydney on June 5, 2001 and consecrated on St Peter’s Day, June 29, 2001. However, Archbishop Jensen avoids much of the pomp that often attaches to the office of Bishop. He sees himself “as a man of the people not a prince of the church” and his role as that of a preacher, teacher and evangelist for the Diocese. “We must be a missionary Diocese” Archbishop Jensen said. “Our church is narrowly English in name, but it must be comprehensive in fact. Our fundamental aim should be to address the secular challenge by providing flourishing Bible-based, gospel-centred, people-nurturing churches in as many places as possible. We need to be both prayerful and intentional; trusting and planning”.
