What is a province?

«Return

The dioceses of the Episcopal Church are united into nine Provinces as mandated by General Convention under Title I, Canon 9.1-10.
 
Canon 9.4 states that:
“There shall be in each Province a Synod consisting of a House of Bishops and a House of Deputies, which Houses shall sit and deliberate either separately or together. The Synod shall meet on a regular basis as determined by each Province for the purpose of organizing and carrying out the responsibilities of the Province as provided in the Canons.”
