Our diocese is home to hundreds of ethnic and language groups, and our Anglican community is very diverse. The diocese’s multicultural ministry is working within these diverse cultural contexts to make God’s word fully known in these communities. Today, a significant number of churches offer services in languages other than English, and more that are working to cater to the diverse cultural needs of a culturally diverse community.
Below is a list of churches that currently offer services in languages other than English. If you think you can help enrich the diocese’s engagement with Melbourne’s diverse communities, please contact Bishop Paul Barker at bishoppaulbarker@melbourneanglican.org.au
