The General Convention is the governing body of the Episcopal Church. Every three years, it meets as a bicameral legislature that includes the House of Deputies and the House of Bishops, composed of deputies and bishops from each diocese. The Episcopal Church comprises 106 dioceses and one mission area across 22 countries and territories. While the Episcopal Church is headquartered in New York City, it is considered a multinational denomination and the only U.S.-based member of the worldwide Anglican Communion. The Episcopal Church is part of the world's third-largest group of Christians and currently has more than 1.4 million members. It is a denominational descendant of - and partners with - the Church of England and the Scottish Episcopal Church. FORN-TUB-0060-BB-2410-JC1310
