Episcopal Diocese of Alaska
The Episcopal Diocese of Alaska is the diocese of the Episcopal Church in the United States of America with jurisdiction over the state of Alaska. Established in 1895, it has the largest geographical reach of any diocese in the Episcopal Church, with approximately 7,000 members spread across 53 congregations.〔(Episcopal Diocese of Alaska website )〕 It is in Province 8. It has no cathedral and the diocesan offices are located in Fairbanks.〔Episcopal Church Annual, 2006, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania: Morehouse Publishing, p. 124〕
==Bishop of Alaska==
Following the resignation in 2007 of Mark MacDonald, Bishop of Alaska, to become the first National Indigenous Bishop of the Anglican Church of Canada, the diocese embarked on a lengthy discernment process about its future leadership. Recognizing that the vacancy would likely be lengthy, the diocesan convention elected as assisting bishop, Rustin R. Kimsey, retired Bishop of Eastern Oregon and former assisting bishop for Navajoland,〔(News of the Navajoland Area Mission )〕 to exercise episcopal functions pending the election and installation of a new diocesan bishop. In 2009, the diocese announced a process for election of the 8th Bishop of Alaska,〔(Bishop of Alaska Timeline )〕 and the 35th Diocesan Convention, on April 10, 2010, elected Mark Lattime, Rector of St. Michael's Episcopal Church in Geneseo in the Diocese of Rochester (New York), as the 8th Bishop of Alaska.〔(Episcopal Life Online ) item, April 10, 2010.〕 His episcopal ordination took place on September 4, 2010, at the First United Methodist Church in Anchorage.〔(Episcopal Life Online ) item, September 7, 2010.〕
