Episcopal Parish Network (EPN) is the connecting point in the church for almost 250 Episcopal churches and cathedrals. And our network continues to grow. EPN is where innovative and agile lay and clergy leaders turn for strengthening their local ministries.
EPN welcomes your church to join the essential church network. Your membership helps ensure members and the broader church are connected to learn and to equip from and with each other. Member’s annual dues cover operating costs ensuring every church regardless of size or resources has access to valued learning and incomparable networking.
“What I would say about EPN is that the focus on developing, supporting, and cheering on leaders is essential to the future of the church.”
— The Rev. Michael A. Bird, Vicar, Trinity Church, New York City, NY
Inspiring Leaders. Inspiring Ministries.

Enduring Connections — EPN is where members from all parts of the church and around the country learn, connect, and equip each other for the challenging and exciting work of local ministry.
“EPN is the network of people you can talk to and get best practices, share yours, and be inspired by each other. It’s an incredible gift.”
