Deputies to the 2010 Diocesan Convention approved a plan on October 15 to group the parishes of the diocese into four new districts.
“This smaller but more balanced grouping of parishes will allow more communication and ease in sharing among our congregations,” said Bishop Price.
District 3 includes All Saints, Bridgeville, which the Convention admitted as the newest parish of the diocese moments before approving this redistricting plan. All Saints becomes the diocese’s 29th active parish.
The four districts, with the parishes actively participating in the diocese, are:
