It has 106 congregations representing 22,000 members. Henry Benjamin Whipple was the first bishop of the diocese. The Rt. Rev Brian Prior is the current bishop.

Records

Records of the Episcopal Church, Diocese of Minnesota, are available at the Minnesota Historical Society, covering the period from the arrival of the first Episcopal missionaries into the area in the 1820s through the bishopric of Robert M. Anderson, which ended in 1993. They document the organization, administration, and history of the diocese and its parishes and missions through the records of the diocesan offices and parishes and the papers of numerous diocesan officials and leaders, including George Clinton Tanner, Stephen E. Keeler, Frederick F. Kramer, Hamilton Hyde Kellogg, Philip F. McNairy, and Robert M. Anderson. [1]
