Archbishop Philip was moved by Ana\u2019s response to her new role,\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">\u201cIt felt incredibly authentic to me. What I saw was a person who wasn\u2019t seeking this kind of call or responsibility, but who has embraced it.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">\u201cAnd I was impacted by the way they have clearly worked through this calling as a family \u2013 in both the beauty and the cost of that. I will pray for the four of them.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Bishop of Te Hui Amorangi o Te Upoko o Te Ika, the Rt Rev Waitohiariki Quayle presented Bishop Ana to the Archbishops on Saturday.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Bishop Wai welcomes the opportunity to work alongside a sister bishop in Wellington again.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">\u201cWe\u2019ve only just met, but Ana is like a breath of fresh air.

Her ordination is a symbol of a wider invitation from God for our Church.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">\u201cAna is able to weave multiple strands together in ways we haven\u2019t seen before, gathering together old and new aspects of our tradition to make something new.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\"><strong>Anashuya Fletcher (39) was born in Sri Lanka in 1984.

As she supported her friends, and took leadership in youth ministry, Ana came to realise that her compassion for others and desire to end suffering in the world was shaping her as a \u201cjustice-oriented\u201d Christian.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Later, moving from school to university, Ana studied law and commerce, looking to play her part in rescuing people from modern slavery, and to protect as many as she could from falling prey to future perpetrators.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">In 2008-2009 with her Bachelor of Commerce and LLB complete, Ana joined International Justice Mission (IJM), going first to Washington DC, then on to India to serve as a legal fellow for IJM in its work protecting impoverished communities from violence and slavery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">For Ana, her time in IJM\u2019s office in South Asia revealed the scale of human suffering that exists in the world \u2013 but also its deplorable cause.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">\u201cThat experience was a combination of incredible and inspiring, but also gut-wrenching and horrendous.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">\u201c\u2026I saw that in this world there are people who are suffering terribly, entirely because of the human depravity of others\u2026 There are people who choose to cause suffering, and choose not to alleviate it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Coming home from India, and intending to go back, Ana returned to Mt Roskill Baptist still filled with urgency for the work she had been doing. There she met the new Assistant Pastor, Paul Fletcher who shared her conviction for serving those on the margins, but who also encouraged Ana and other young adults in their church to consider what it looked like to be doing this in their own community.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Many robust conversations later, Ana and Paul grew to be good friends and joined in local mission together.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Instead of a return to South Asia, Ana\u2019s focus on serving the poor became part of her daily life in missional communities, first apart from Paul in Mt Roskill Baptist\u2019s \u201cHomes of Hope\u201d and then after they married, together where she and Paul fostered youth alongside their growing family in Mt Roskill, then Onehunga. Over the past seven years in Whanganui their missional community life has also extended to replanting an Anglican church at St Peter\u2019s Whanganui.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Looking back it\u2019s eleven years since Ana and Paul first joined Urban Vision, which was how Ana met Jenny and Justin Duckworth and began her journey of mission and mentoring with them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">At the Cathedral this week, Jenny Duckworth said she admires many of Ana\u2019s leadership qualities, particularly highlighting her forthrightness, her loyalty and her flexibility.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">\u201cAnd Ana has a prophetic edge\u2026but she\u2019s not a hopeless dreamer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">She\u2019s super strategic, and while she can see the realities in front of her, she can also see the potential.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Jenny says Ana is a wise leader too, because she knows her own strengths, and can recognise her limitations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">\u201cShe\u2019s not afraid to partner with others, to work closely with others and pull in their gifts\u2026 she holds a justice perspective and is aware of empowering people who would otherwise be left on the edge.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">In tandem with her mission at home, Ana has intertwined her paid work with her ministry.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Over the years she has used her legal skills working as a solicitor in an Auckland law firm, used her hospitality smarts, and engaged her bridge-building skills in many spaces including as a Community Network Administrator in Mt Roskill (backed by the Ministry of Social Development), as Manager of a Citizen\u2019s Advice Bureau and from 2018-2020 as the NZ Church Missionary Society\u2019s Intercultural Communities Enabler.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Bishop of Nelson Rt Rev Steve Maina was head of the NZ Church Missionary Society during Ana\u2019s time with them. He is delighted to see her enter a new season of leadership and sees qualities in her that he thinks will serve her well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">\u201cAna is passionate about working for reconciliation and peace.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Ana\u2019s time spent in hospitality, and her concern to feed people well, showed up in the generous full meals that followed her ordination on Saturday, where Indian, Malaysian and Chinese dishes were provided by Interfaith Network friends and the Anglican Chinese Mission.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Ana\u2019s work in hospitality also led to her experiments with cafe-based social enterprise, which she first concieved as a way to access work experience for young people unable to enter the workforce.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Several years later, Ana helped\u00a0 co-found Common Good Coffee, a business designed to go easy on the earth (organic production) counter unfair production overseas (Fair Trade), while at the same time significantly contributing towards Joyya; an organisation that exists to spark good in places impacted by modern slavery and extreme poverty.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Ordained deacon in 2017 and priest in 2018, Ana says that her new Anglican ways have firmly taken root. She loves the beauty she finds in the way Anglicans celebrate the Eucharist and she loves the sense of a bigger call, one that assumes a responsibility for care beyond the members of a congregation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">\u201cI think when you\u2019re Anglican you are part of something much bigger.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">\u201cAs Anglicans there\u2019s a sense of having whakapapa that links you both historically and contemporaneously across the world.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Ana loves the Anglican connection to place and its understanding of local parishes as mission fields, which gels with one of her favourite quotes from Abraham Kuyper,<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">\u201cThere is not a square inch in the whole domain of our human existence over which Christ, who is Sovereign over all, does not cry, Mine!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">After her ordination rites on 13 April, Bishop Ana spoke to the flock she will now help to shepherd, sharing her reflections from the lead up to her special day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">\u201cOver and over again I have been overwhelmed with gratitude for the legacy that I get to step into, because I\u2019m so aware that I\u2019m only here today because of the faithfulness of other followers of Jesus.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Bishop Ana went on to acknowledge those who had prayed for her, discipled her and mentored her in the faith, reaching back to her late great-grandmother (whose ruby bejewells Ana\u2019s episcopal ring), her parents, her husband and her children, Ishmael and\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Eilidh, and all those who have encouraged her to respond to her call from within the Urban Vision wh\u0101nau and the wider family of the church.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">\u201cToday I stand here before you so thankful, so full of gratitude for those of you who have done the journey with me already \u2013 and I\u2019m so excited and expectant for what God is going to do through us, together.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #800000; font-size: 16px;\"><a style=\"color: #800000; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/websitedesigns.com.au\/elankanew\/elanka-newsletter-sign-up\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Click here to receive your free copy of the eLanka Newsletter twice a week delivered directly\u00a0to\u00a0your\u00a0inbox!<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wellington celebrates Bishop Ana Source :\u00a0anglicanmovement The Wellington Cathedral of St Paul thronged with well-wishers on Saturday 13 April as 600+ people turned out to celebrate the\u00a0Rt Rev Anashuya Fletcher\u2019s ordination and installation as Assistant Bishop of Wellington.
