Read an interview with Bishop Lee

“The local parish is where the action is and that’s where we’re going to change the world. I see the role of bishop, in one sense, as just enabling people to grow the local churches. That’s my passion, really.”

The Rt Rev Ivan Lee began his ministry as Bishop of Western Sydney in February 2003 after more than twenty years of parish ministry in Sydney and Melbourne. He succeeds Bishop Brian King who served the Western Region as Bishop from 1993.
