Peter Ruane Carrell (born 1959) is a New Zealand Anglican bishop. Since 2019, he has been the ninth Bishop of Christchurch in the Anglican Church in Aotearoa, New Zealand and Polynesia.[1]

Early life and education

[edit]

Carrell was born in Christchurch, New Zealand in 1959. He attended Christ's College, Christchurch, an all-boys independent school.[1] He studied mathematics at the University of Canterbury (BSc) and then for a Bachelor of Divinity (BD) degree at the University of Otago.[2] In 1993, he graduated with a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree in New Testament studies from Durham University in England.[1] His doctoral thesis was titled "Jesus and the angels: the influence of angelology on the Christology of the apocalypse of John".[3]

Ordained ministry

[edit]

Carrell was ordained as a deacon in 1986 and as a priest in 1987.[1][2] He served his curacy in the Parish of Shirley, Christchurch in the Diocese of Christchurch.[1] Then, from 1990 to 1993, he studied in England for his PhD.[1] Returning to New Zealand, he combined a career in parish ministry in the Dioceses of Nelson and Christchurch, and in theological education.[1]

On 9 February 2019, Carrell was consecrated a bishop during a service held at Christchurch Boys' High School, and installed as the 9th Bishop of Christchurch at the ruined ChristChurch Cathedral.[4] In contrast to his predecessor, Victoria Matthews, he is seeking an open relationship with the media and invited a reporter from the news media website Stuff to interview him before he took up his post in Christchurch.[2]
