We have several ministries and funds working within or alongside us to establish ANiC churches and to cultivate further growth and life in our congregations.
You can find out more about how planting and growing churches is one of our 5 Priorities here.
Asian & Multicultural Ministries
The Asian & Multicultural Ministries in Canada (AMMiC) – a ministry of the Anglican Network in Canada launched in November 2009 – is a mission to facilitate the development and growth of Asian and multicultural Christian churches in Canada at a time when the country is experiencing phenomenal growth of visibly minority populations, particularly Asian immigrants. The most neglected of these Asian immigrants are:
The many marginalized immigrants with poor language skills and low-paying jobs
The growing number of transnational mainland Chinese satellite families
AMMiC seeks to ground and nurture the multicultural and Asian-Canadian Christian communities in the Biblical faith as they face the challenges posed by western secularism and post-modernism and wrestles with the meaning and significance of their cultural heritage.
AMMiC also seeks to build partnerships among Asian-Canadian churches in order to mutually enrich, support and challenge one another in Gospel witness. For more information or to donate to AMMiC visit their website:
The Anglican Explorers Initiative
The Anglican Explorers Initiative is one of our church planting initiatives.
Its purposes are:
to identify people and Seed Groups interested in developing ANiC Projects.
to identify potential Planters and help them discern their calling
to befriend, train and support both Seed Groups and Planters
to match Planters with Seed Groups and Opportunities under the direction of the bishop

About The Right Reverend Donald & Mrs Trudy Harvey
Bishop Don Harvey is the founding diocesan bishop and moderator of the Anglican Network in Canada. While Bishop Don traveled North America, and even the world, ministering and helping to build ANiC, ACNA and the Global Fellowship of Confessing Anglicans, Trudy quietly and sacrificially made his ministry possible.
Trudy, a 30-year primary school teacher, is a church musician, an active community volunteer, and a passionate prayer warrior. Bishop Don and Trudy make their home in St John’s, Newfoundland.
“I believe ministry with children and youth is a vital area which requires much more effort and resources. We do not have the luxury of time on our side.”
~ Bishop Donald Harvey
