The Diocese Of Christ The King Has Four
archdeaconries Namely The Archdeaconary Of St Peter, Archdeaconary Of Kliprivier, Archdeaconary Of Sebokeng With Evaton And Archdeaconary Of The Vaal.
The diocese is the area between the Vaal Triangle—where Sharpeville, Vereeniging, Boipatong, Vanderbijlpark and Sebokeng are found—and the southern side of the city of Johannesburg in South Africa. The diocese is small in size, being only 80 kilometres (50 mi) long and half that wide, but rapid urbanisation has resulted in significant growth in parishes. Just over half of these churches have a recognisable church building in which to worship. The rest meet in garages, shacks or the open air. One of the latest new congregations worships in French and aims to welcome refugees from the Congo and other Francophone African countries.
The diocese registered a coat of arms at the
Bureau of Heraldry in 1990 : Azure, a Chrismon Argent ensigned with a celestial crown Or; the shield ensigned with a mitre proper.[3]
