Opportunities to serve LCANZ/LCNZ
The LCNZ have opportunities to serve available to members of the church.
1 Gateway Gift Trust Board
The Gateway Gift Trust Board administers the funds in the Gateway Gift, which was set up in 2001 following the sale of property held for a new school that was unable to secure the appropriate Ministry of Educaton licenses.
The Trust Deed calls for between 6 and 10 Trustees. Currently there are six trustees, and this is considered insufficient for efficient oversight.
The Trust Board is looking for additional Trustees to serve.
The Trust is looking for.
- Up to four additional members
- Must be confirmed members of a LCNZ Congregation
- Expertise in finance, investment, trust constitutions, or LCNZ Congregation or Parish administration would be most desired, but general church experience would also be considered.
- Please send a letter of application to GGTB Chairperson Andrew Mattiske (Andrew.mattiske@lutheran.org.nz) and copy to Bishop Richard Schwedes (bishop@lutheran.org.nz ) and the District Administrator (admin@lutheran.org.nz ) .

2 LCANZ Nominations Committee
Nominations for positions on the boards, councils, commissions and committees of the LCANZ are now open.
Appointment to these governance bodies is for a synodical term. Apart from the General Church Board (GCB), whose members are elected at General Synod and take office at the end of Synod, all other positions change at the beginning of the new year. Like GCB, the LCANZ Assistant Bishop will be elected at the upcoming Convention of General Synod, which will be held in Adelaide in October this year. Read more
