About Us


Flag of the Episcopal Church flies at St. John the Divine in Burlington WisconsinThe Diocese of Milwaukee is a Christian community of 55 congregations and over a dozen ministries and fellowships worshipping and witnessing as the Episcopal Church in southern Wisconsin.  Through the work of our 11,000 communicants and nearly 200 clergy, we seek to grow in faith as disciples of Jesus Christ serving and ministering in our local communities and the wider world.

 We have an active witness across the southern third of Wisconsin, from Kenosha and Port Washington on Lake Michigan west to Prairie du Chien on the Mississippi River, and from the Wisconsin Dells south to the Illinois border. In local congregations and in communities across the diocese, our members are bringing about God’s Kingdom in food pantries, community meals, caregiving for our elders, youth and children programs, relief and development programs, partnerships with other Christian and other faith communities, and outreach to the homeless through ministries like the Hospitality Center.

 We are a diverse community, and a welcoming community. If you are looking for a Christian community that will nurture your spirit and celebrate your gifts, there’s a place for you here.

"We are a church, a people empowered and endowed by the Holy Spirit with the gifts necessary to accomplish the mission God has set before us to restore all people to unity with Him in Christ."
── The Rt. Rev. Steven Miller, Bishop of Milwaukee

Latest Sermon

Christ is Risen! Jesus is alive today! That is the proclamation of our faith. Christ is Risen and in his rising the end of death begins. As the apostle Paul writes in his First letter to the Corinthians, "The last enemy to be destroyed is death." (I Cor. 15:26).
