Serving Christ in the Western United States

Under mandate from Archbishop Carmel H. Carfora, S.T.D., Archbishop Metropolitan of the North American Old Roman Catholic Church, the Western Regionary Diocese was created on October 22, 1945.  On December 2, 1980, the Western Regionary Diocese was given over to the pastoral care of the Society of Augustinian Restorationists, an Institute of clergy and lay person established by the Most Rev. Frederick L. Pyman, S.T.D., the first Bishop Ordinary of the Western Regionary Diocese.

The Diocese includes the States of California, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, and Washington.  Parishes and Missions in Idaho and Arizona are under the jurisdiction of the Bishop Ordinary of the Western Regionary Diocese.
