Annual Convention 2025

The Diocese of Nevada convenes once again to do the mission and ministry of our beloved Episcopal Church.

Who: Hosted by Trinity Cathedral and St. Patrick’s in Incline Village

What: To Love and Serve

When: October 9-11, 2025

Where: Reno

Why: For the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life a ransom for many.’ (Mark 10:45)

Every year elected delegates from each church come together to do the work of God to build the Kingdom. We do that by focusing on Mission and Ministry so that we can help people follow Jesus.

We gather together in Reno to share God’s love and how we serve our neighbors.

Please be a part of what we’re doing to help people follow Jesus.
