The Rev David Mansfield has been appointed as the new director. Starting May 11, David says heading up the Unit takes his passion for evangelism to a new level.
"I have a great love for global mission and a great passion for Africa .... and this was an opportunity to assist in the whole process of shifing first-world resources across to the third world for the sake of the gospel - I saw this as being fairly strategic so I wanted to be involved in it," he says.
"My role is to lift the profile of the Archbishop's Appeals Unit so that the Diocese can see the Archbishop's priorities to stand alongside our brothers and sisters in the developing world and in Sydney as they seek to reach their neighbours and communities for Christ." Mr Mansfield was an itinerant evangelist and director of the diocesan Department of Evangelism for 11 years and then was rector of York Street.
