Manawa O Te Wheke
Te Pihopatanga o Te Manawa o Te Wheke is an Episcopal polity (or Diocese) of the Anglican Church in Aotearoa, New Zealand and Polynesia. The Hui Amorangi (Diocese) extends from the Bombay Hills south of Auckland through to Taumarunui (The King Country). Te Manawa o Te Wheke is one of 5 Hui Amorangi (Episcopal units) that comprise Te Pihopatanga o Aotearoa, the Māori Anglican Church in Aotearoa/New Zealand.
This Hui Amorangi (Diocese) has most recently become known for its liberal stance on Ordination, accepting candidates irrespective of Sexual Orientation. In 2011 at the annual Synod, the Hui Amorangi also formally rejected the proposed Anglican Covenant.
