THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH is the Anglican Church in the United States. Episcopal worship combines liturgical tradition with scripturally based teaching and preaching. Thus, Episcopalians are Christians who are both catholic and protestant.

THE HALE DEANERY
is made up of the Episcopal congregations in southern-most Illinois. Named for Bishop Charles Reuben Hale, it is part of the Episcopal Diocese of Springfield,

HALE DEANERY'S
TEAM MINISTRY

Five churches in the Hale Deanery are mission churches under the direct authority of their Bishop. These churches are located in the following cities:

Cairo
Harrisburg

Marion

McLeansboro

West Frankfort

These churches are served by a clergy team of Bishop, priests and deacons, serving on a rotation schedule.
