From the diocesan office in Chipata, the Diocese serves parishes across Zambia's Eastern Province through worship, mission, social development and enterprise.
Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
Who We Are
The Anglican Diocese of Eastern Zambia is part of the Anglican Church of the Province of Central Africa. The Diocese is led by the Rt. Rev. Dennis Milanzi, the third and incumbent Bishop, with the diocesan office at Kalindawaro Road in Chipata.
Parishes across the Eastern Province gather for the Eucharist, prepare candidates for baptism and confirmation, and carry the work of the Church into schools, health facilities, farms and homes.
Figures reported in the 2025 ADEZ Annual Report.

Programmes that serve communities in health, education, agriculture and environmental care, including tree planting and support for vulnerable households.

Income-generating projects and enterprise training that build the self-reliance of parishes and of the households they serve.
