Bishops of Quebec
The Anglican Diocese of Quebec was founded by Letters Patent in 1793 and is a part of the Ecclesiastical Province of Canada of the Anglican Church of Canada, in turn a province of the Anglican Communion. The diocese comprises 720,000 square kilometres and took its present shape in 1850 with the carving off of what is now the Diocese of Montreal. It includes a territory of west to east from Magog to the Gaspe and the Magdalen Islands, south to north from the United States border to Kawawachikamach and several communities along the Lower North Shore. The diocesan office is located in Quebec City, as is Holy Trinity Anglican Cathedral, completed in 1804. The diocese counts approximately 4,000 Anglican faithful who gather in nearly 70 congregations. With both the dioceses of Quebec and Montreal having fewer than 10,000 members and decreasing numbers, discussions are underway to explore ways the two dioceses can work more closely together.
