Episcopal Diocese of Springfield

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Episcopal Diocese of Springfield is a diocese of the Episcopal Church in the United States of America. It is located in the state of Illinois and includes the area east of the Illinois River and south of the Counties of Woodford, Livingston, Ford, and Iroquois. The diocese was founded when the former Episcopal Diocese of Illinois split into three separate Dioceses (Springfield, Quincy, and Chicago) in 1877. The current bishop, the Right Reverend Peter Hess Beckwith, was consecrated on 29 February 1992 and is the vice president of the American Anglican Council.
