COVID-19: Bishop Updates Guidelines

Over the past few days, we have seen a dramatic increase in cases of COVID-19 in the state of Missouri and across our nation. Levels of hospitalization and mortality have also seen a sharp increase. Upon the advice of the Diocesan Pandemic Task Force, I strongly encourage communities of faith that make up the Diocese of Missouri to return to either a virtual or a hybrid model of worship (10 or less people gathering in worship spaces) during this significant spike in COVID-19 cases.

    Welcome from Our Bishop Find a Church Diocesan Calendar Clergy Resources

    We believe in a loving, life-giving and liberating God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We believe God loves you -- no exceptions!

    We invite you to be a part of our faith journey.

    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.

    Learn More

    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).

    If you are looking for a church home or a just a faith community to visit, we invite you to explore The Episcopal Diocese of Missouri.
