Episcopal Diocese of Washington

Welcome to the Diocese of Washington — the Episcopal Church in the District of Columbia and the Maryland counties of Charles, St. Mary's, Prince George's and Montgomery.

Bishop Chane announced his retirement at the diocesan convention held at Washington National Cathedral on Jan 29-30. State Rep. Byron Rushing of Massachusetts preached at the Eucharist, on Friday, and the Rev. Thomas Brackett, the Episcopal Church's church planter will give the keynote address on Saturday.

Episcopal Relief & Development is currently accepting donations to the Haiti Relief Fund and will continue to post updates as it receives more information. A webcast of the Jan. 17 Service of Prayer for Haiti at Washington National Cathedral is available at www.nationalcathedral.org.
