Diocesan Communications

The Virginia Episcopalian, the bimonthly newspaper of the Diocese of Virginia, is in the process of transition. January 2012 will see the debut issue of
The Virginia Episcopalian
magazine, a full-color, quarterly publication.

As a large and wide-spread
diocese, we have a unique
communications obstacle: unlike a church, we have no central gathering place where we regroup together as a community every week. We have to embrace community in other ways, and The Virginia Episcopalian is one of our strongest tools for building up and supporting our community of 80,000+ Episcopalians.

In 2012, you can look forward to a high-quality magazine that shares our stories, in addition to increased news and events coverage online. We
hope you'll like the results.
