PAROCHIAL REPORTS: The online portal to file the 2024 Parochial Report has closed. Late Parochial Reports will need to be submitted as a PDF to the Convention office. If you are having difficulty logging in, please email swylie@ladiocese.org for assistance.
If you have not yet completed your 2023 or 2022 Parochial Report, you can no longer file it online but it is still canonically required. Please submit a completed PDF to swylie@ladiocese.org and the Convention office will file it with The Episcopal Church directly on your behalf.

If you have questions or require assistance, please contact the diocesan Finance office at finance@ladiocese.org or the Convention Coordinator at swylie@ladiocese.org.
