The twelve African provinces are among the most politically and culturally nuanced, and often misunderstood, provinces in the Anglican Communion. The Episcopal Church's Africa Officer witnesses to the life and ministry of the Episcopal Church to Africa, supports the development of stronger mutual and interdependent relationships, and helps facilitate and support relationships between parishes and dioceses of the Episcopal Church and our partners in Africa.
