SCOPE

What is Scope?

Scope stands for Strandz Communities of Practice for Everyone. The Oxford University Press defines ‘scope’ as “the extent of the area or subject matter that something deals with or to which it is relevant” with synonyms including freedom, opportunity, room, range, breadth, spread, horizon. A ‘scope’ (noun) can also be a target, an instrument for observing, viewing, or examining, or a length of cable extended when a ship is at anchor.

These definitions and synonyms reflect a group that has the freedom to observe and explore, while being supported by a strong anchor in Christ.

Who can join Scope?

Scope is available for leaders within the Anglican Church of Aotearoa New Zealand and Polynesia in 2021. Unfortunately, we don't have unlimited capacity to open it wider afield yet, but if you are from another organisation or denomination, and would like to know more about Scope, feel free to get in touch!

Cost?

There is currently no cost to attend the 12 Scope sessions in 2021, however there is a cost to attend the retreat in October in Wellington (highly recommended!). We would encourage participants to seek funding from their churches or dioceses to attend the retreat, if required. (approx $150+flights if needed)
