The Episcopal Church and its refugee resettlement affiliates in Texas have condemned Gov. Greg Abbott's recently announced decision to block resettlement of refugees in the state as the Trump administration steps up its efforts to hollow out the federal government's 40-year-old resettlement program.
Celebrating 175 years of mission in Christ, we are a diverse community of believers following the Episcopal tradition across our 81-county diocese spanning nearly 70,000 square miles in the central, eastern, and northern regions of Texas. Founded in 1838, we are more than 450 active clergy-strong with 174 congregations, approximately 70 missional communities, 27 campus missions, chaplaincies, foundations, institutions, and over 77,000 parishioners.
