THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH IN THE USA is one of the provinces of the Anglican Communion, incorporating not only the dioceses within the United States, but also a number of dioceses outside it.
The US Episcopal Church came into existence as an independent denomination after the American Revolution. Today it has around two million members in the United States and Central America, all of which are under the jurisdiction of Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori.
This USA section is divided into several areas. Choose the area you're interested in from the chart just below. Since our links to dioceses and parishes are on this page, that section is in bold type.

US Episcopal Church Dioceses and Parishes: BY STATE
Under each state you'll find diocesan home pages listed first, alphabetically
by diocese. After the diocesan web pages, parishes are listed alphabetically by city or town, regardless of their diocese. We assume
most people want to find what Anglican parishes are in, say, Tucson, Arizona, and don't particularly want to find the name of a particular
parish church in a state. After all, if you know the name of the church, you'll probably know what city or town it's in.
We list Episcopal churches outside the USA that are administratively part of the US Episcopal Church, though because almost no one knows or cares about church administration structures, we also list them where they belong geographically.
Are you looking for an Episcopal church in the USA?
There are other online databases that will help you find an Episcopal Church in the area where you live or are travelling. The databases
include all c. 6700 Episcopal churches, not just those with web sites.
Please note that the official US Episcopal Church site often includes details for churches that have been closed for many years, and where no services are still held. It is important to call ahead to find out whether a church listed by the Episcopal Church USA still really exists.
Episcopal Church Locator: Produced by Morehouse Publishing, this database lets you search by ZIP code. You can limit your search by number of miles from that zip code.
Parish Finder: This site, sponsored by the Church Pension Group, lets you search by street and ZIP code. You can restrict your search to find only churches, cathedrals, chapels or schools, seminaries, or diocesan offices.
