ANGLICAN NETWORK IN INDIA

---

Biblically faithful, sharing Gospel, Globally uniting

The Anglican Network in India is a India-wide family of churches, which, like the majority of Anglicans Churches worldwide remain faithful to establish Christian doctrine and Anglican practices. 

We are a diocese in the Anglican Episcopal church and part of the global GAFCON movement in which Members of SIM DIOCESE are committed to remain faithful to the Holy Scripture and established Anglican DOCTRINE and practices SIM DIOCESE emerged out of the 'Essentials' movement in the Anglican Episcopal Churches.

Our Mission

Building Biblically faithful, sharing Gospel, Anglican churches. We will not only be used by God to build new churches, but will also build-up existing churches. These churches will be Anglican, biblically faithful, evangelizing and discipline communities.

Our Values

SCRIPTURES– We value the supreme authority of scripture.

PARISH-CENTRED MINISTRY– We value equipping parishes to be the focus for ministry and evangelism. 

RELATIONSHIPS AND TRANSPARENCY– We value conducting the business and ministry of the diocese based on healthy Christ-like relationships and transparency. 

EQUIPPED AND SUPPORTED PRIESTS – We value qualified and cared for PRIESTS with sound theological training, 

ANGLICAN IDENTITY– We value nurturing liturgical and sacramental worship in the Anglican way as expressed through the catholic, evangelical, and charismatic streams. 

GOVERNANCE – We value being led by shepherd bishops who serve our parishes, province, and the India-wide communion.

UNITY – We value walking together with love and respect even when differing on non-essential matters.

Our Vision

Anglican Episcopal Churches Diocese is in every region enduring churches, excellence in leadership, equipped members. We believe God is calling us to have churches in all needy areas in the nearby poor Countries. We pray and plan that the churches will thrive until Jesus re-coming. We will humbly seek to be servant leaders always desiring to grow and learn the best practices. We desire to have every person in our congregation growing in Christ.

Our 6 Ministry Priorities

Our other values and mission: SIM DIOCESE congregations have six challenging ministry priorities – Bold witnesses, 

                                                          Unity of Service,

                                                         Biblically grounded, 

                                                         Loving children & families,

                                                        Our Mission, and 

                                                        Planting & growing churches.

 We are praying that God will make these priorities transformational realities in the life of every  Anglican Episcopal Churches congregation.
