Sydneyanglicans.net is set to be completely transformed into a portal site or gateway to the entire Diocese.
The aim is to save you precious time and energy.
Whether you need the telephone number of your local parish, ministry resources, administrative guidelines, or information from any of the Sydney Diocese's most prominent organisations, the Sydneyanglicans.net Portal will be ready to provide.
From October 17 this year Sydneyanglicans.net will be transformed into the ultimate entry point for all of the Diocese' on-line information.
Your community
None of the existing news, opinion and community content of Sydneyanglicans.net will disappear. It will all be available at a brand new location - your.Sydneyanglicans.net
The current news and community site will be undergoing its own transformation over the rest of this year.
Watch as it emerges with an even greater focus on the stories, opinions, articles and conversations that have made it Australia's best religious web site three years running.
Key features
The new portal has been designed in two sections. One section for visitors. And one section for regulars " our ministers and committed lay people.
The visitors’ section will include a search device to help people locate their local church, as well as basic information about Sydney Anglicanism and an explanation of the gospel.
Many visitors come to our sites to find out about our Archbishop, Dr Peter Jensen, because of his high profile in the media. This has been recognised in the design of the Sydneyanglicans.net Portal. The new portal will make accessing information about Dr Jensen far more easy.
For the regulars, the Portal will also include quick links to our news site as well as the latest administrative information.
As part of this Portal initiative the Sydney Diocesan Services (SDS) website has been completely revamped and relaunched to make it even easier to use.
The network
Perhaps the most important feature of the new initiative is the "Sydney Anglican Network' bar. The diocese’ most important Anglican organisations will be including this menu strip across their sites.
This means that surfing from one Sydney Diocesan site to the next will be so much easier for visitors and regulars alike.
Users will now be able to get from any one place in the diocese to another in just one click.
