The Diocese of California is organized into six deaneries (a group of congregations). The Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco, and Southern Alameda deaneries cover their respective counties; the Peninsula Deanery consists of all of San Mateo County and a small portion of Santa Clara County. St. Timothy’s is part of the Contra Costa deanery. You can get involved in many ways at the diocesan level. Give deanery a try. There is a lot going on in 2023.
