A diocese is the basic grouping of the Church - the people of God - under a bishop. In its very nature, the grouping is of many people, many vocations, many ministries, each with characteristics, and personalities. In this way, the sharp ‘edges’ and awkward ‘shapes’ of each person, institution, and ministry who come together to form a pattern of inter-supporting cooperation.
