The diocese's Office of Congregational Development is forming a new church in Orland Park and assisting congregations in Barrington, Crystal Lake , McHenry, and Wauconda in exploring a church start in Huntley. Of the seven Hispanic congregations, four are missions while the remaining three are noncanonical congregations in mutual ministry or space-sharing partnerships with Anglo congregations. Three are located in Chicago and the others are in Blue Island, Elgin, Franklin Park and Waukegan. The diocese's Korean members attend One in Christ Episcopal Church, Park Ridge, a joint Anglo-Korean mission under the leadership of a Korean priest. There are 195 priests serving in parochial ministries, and 40 deacons.
Women represent one-fourth of the parochial clergy.
There are presently nine female priests serving as rectors of parishes, and six female priests serving as vicars. The Diocesan Convention is the legislative body of the diocese which meets annually to elect officers, receive reports from diocesan agencies and canonical bodies, debate and vote on resolutions and legislation, and adopt a budget. It is composed of all clergy canonically resident in the diocese and lay delegates elected by their parishes or nominated by their missions. Each parish is entitled to elect three lay delegates while missions are entitled to nominate two lay delegates who are appointed by the bishop. The committee is also responsible for reviewing and authorizing the sale of property, overseeing the process of candidacy and ordination to the diaconate and priesthood, consenting to the election of bishops in other dioceses, and investigating and prosecuting cases of sexual misconduct.
