Anglican Diocese of Perth
- Anglican Diocese of Perth
The Anglican Diocese of Perth is one of the twenty three dioceses of the Anglican Church of Australia. The constitution of the Diocese of Perth was passed and adopted in 1872 at the first synod held in Western Australia. In 1914 the Province of Western Australia was created and the bishop of Perth became archbishop of Perth. The diocese incorporates the southern part of the state of Western Australia and includes the Christmas and Cocos Islands. Other dioceses in the Anglican Province of Western Australia are the Diocese of Bunbury and the Diocese of North West Australia.
The diocese has traditionally had a variety of churchmanship and in recent years has largely moved towards a more liberal and moderate Catholic style. There are, however, parishes and clergy representative of all the main Anglican traditions.
The cathedral church of the diocese is St George's Cathedral, Perth.
