In his 2020 Convention address, the Rt. Rev. Deon K. Johnson said it's a good time to be the Church because being mission-minded is in our spiritual DNA! He encourages everyone to take up a missionary zeal.

"We must now be about the Good News of the Kingdom. We must now be about the work of naming and claiming the stories of those who are lost and afraid. We must now be about the work of finding the broken-hearted and loosening the chains of oppression, division, and injustice." (Click here to read the bishop's full address.)

We invite you to gather, learn, pray, serve, and be served through the many ministries happening throughout The Diocese of Missouri.

Please explore the categories in the menu to the right and help us BE the Church!

The Rt. Rev. Deon K. Johnson is the leader of our diocese. He was elected as our bishop on Nov. 23, 2019, and ordained on June 13, 2020, at Christ Church Cathedral in St. Louis.

Approximately 10,000 people throughout Eastern and Central Missouri find their faith home with us. About three-quarters of our members are in the metro St. Louis area, but our diocese reaches much farther than St. Louis. You will find more than 40 Episcopal churches, missions and faith communities as far north as Kirksville, as far west as Columbia, and as far south as Poplar Bluff (and many points in between).
