This year 13 parishes were represented, 15 clergy delegates, 18 lay delegates and 8 guests.

The theme, 'Getting Back to Basics" was about the essential disciples of Christian growth. Throughout the synod there were sort talks on 'Prayer", 'Personal Devotions", 'Outreach" and 'Bible Readings". There were serious discussions on practical matters - finances and resources and how the Diocese will continue in service to God, the people of the diocese and in the world.
