Diocese of Newfoundland
The Anglican Diocese of Newfoundland was, from its creation in 1839 until 1879, the Diocese of Newfoundland and Bermuda. In 1879 the Church of England in the British Overseas Territory of Bermuda was created, but continued to be grouped with the Diocese of Newfoundland under the Bishop of Newfoundland and Bermuda until 1919, when Newfoundland and Bermuda each received its own bishop..
In 1976 the Diocese of Newfoundland was reorganised and three autonomous dioceses were created, Eastern Newfoundland and Labrador, Central Newfoundland, and Western Newfoundland.
The three dioceses jointly support Queen's College, other ministries and have many common interests.Bishops
