A Bishopric is a church district overseen by a bishop, who is a senior leader in certain Christian denominations. This area includes various congregations and is responsible for the spiritual guidance and administration of the church community. The bishop's role is to ensure that the teachings of the church are upheld and that the needs of the congregants are met.
In many traditions, such as the Catholic Church or Anglican Communion, a bishopric can also be referred to as a diocese. The bishop often works with priests and deacons to support the local churches within the bishopric, fostering a sense of unity and shared mission among the faithful.
