About Us

The 25 Episcopal congregations of Greater Orange County invite you to learn more about us and to visit our churches. We welcome all newcomers and seekers with an embrace as wide as the arms of Christ.

Nationwide there are between two and three million worshippers in about 7500 Episcopal congregations. Worldwide, the "Anglican Communion", which traces its roots to the Church of England, encompasses many millions more. And, locally, the Episcopal Churches of Orange County are part of the 147-parish strong Diocese of Los Angeles.
 

The Episcopal Church relies on Scripture, Tradition and Reason in interpreting God's Word, and welcomes everyone - regardless of where they are on their spiritual journey - to join in our worship, ministry, fellowship and extensive youth-focused and community-outreach activities.

For example, all 25 of our churches have participated in raising money for and building this Habitat for Humanity house nearing completion in Westminster.

Whether your preference is for a traditional or contemporary service, spoken or sung, in English, Spanish, Korean or Vietnamese, you are sure to find a nearby Episcopal church that will meet your needs. And, if you are visiting an Episcopal church for the first time, here's What to Expect When You Visit.

We'll be looking forward to having you with us soon!
