But a diocese is a region. I find it quirky that the church names its regions after the municipalities in which the headquarters are located, even when the municipality is very small. Diocese of Albany makes good sense for "the church region that encompasses the area around Albany." Even "Diocese of Salt Lake City" makes good sense to describe all of Utah (though the Episcopal diocese is called "Utah"). Diocese of Rockville Center just sounds silly to me. |
