[sydneyanglicans.net] 2 Apr 2009--Dr Michael Nazir-Ali, aged 59, has announced his retirement as Bishop of Rochester, effective in September this year. Having been diocesan bishop for 15 years and the ‘runner up’ for the post of Archbishop of Canterbury on the retirement of George Carey, Nazir-Ali has been a rallying point for conservative evangelicals in the Anglican Communion.
He declined the invitation to Lambeth 2008 but instead delivered an address at GAFCON. He had helped organise the 1988 Lambeth as well as attending Lambeth 1998. Dr Nazir-Ali plans to direct his future ministry to helping minority Christian groups in Pakistan, the Middle East and in the UK.
