The Diocese of New England is a diocese of the Orthodox Church in America (OCA). Its territory includes parishes and missions located in six states in New England – Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont. Benedict (Churchill) is the current bishop of the diocese.[1]

The previous bishop of New England was the Right Reverend Nikon (Liolin), who was elected to the position of Bishop of Boston and the Albanian Archdiocese on October 22, 2003.

On September 10, 2019, the OCA announced that Metropolitan Tikhon (Mollard) would be the locum tenens for the diocese until a successor was found.[3] On December 2, 2023, Benedict (Churchill) was ordained as the Bishop of Hartford and the Diocese of New England at Holy Trinity Cathedral in Boston, Massachusetts.[4]
