Popondota Diocese has ten Deaneries and Archdeacons, all of whom have been selected to be trained for a month to better carry out their duties to assist the Diocese in providing pastoral care to each priest within its Deanery.

This project will see clergymen in each deanery brought together to attend retreats and have clergy training conducted by the Diocesan Bishop, retired Bishops and Archdeacons. This will be done so that the clergymen may truly serve God and His people and proclaim His Kingdom.

The project aims to allow both Archdeacons and Priests to do their pastoral work effectively so that parishioners will respond positively in their Christian faith and ultimately build the faith of the Anglican Church in PNG. 

PG016TE- Archdeacon Training needs $14,130 in 2015 (non tax-deductible)
