 In the Latter Day Saint movement, such as the Mormons, the term "bishopric" is used to describe the Mormon bishop himself, together with his two counselors, not the ward or congregation of which a bishop has charge.In the United Methodist Church (the United States and some other countries), a bishop is given oversight over a geographical area called an episcopal area.Each episcopal area contains one or more annual conferences, which is how the churches and clergy under the bishop's supervision are organized.
