Gereja Episkopal Amerika Serikat
Gereja Episkopal Amerika Serikat (bahasa Inggris: The Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America, dikenal juga sebagai The Episcopal Church in the USA (ECUSA)) adalah cabang Amerika dari Komuni Anglikan di seluruh dunia. Berbeda dengan Gereja Inggris, Gereja Episkopal bukanlah sebuah lembaga gereja nasional atau gereja negara, meskipun penguburan negara dan peringatan-peringatan nasional biasanya diselenggarakan di Katedral Nasional Washington dalam tata cara Episkopal. Gereja Episkopal terdiri atas 111 keuskupan di Amerika Serikat, Kepulauan Virgin Amerika Serikat, Haiti, Republik Tiongkok (Taiwan), Kolombia, Republik Dominika, Ekuador, Honduras, Puerto Riko, Eropa, dan Venezuela, dan mempunyai hubungan ekstra provinsial dengan kesukupan Kuba.
Di Amerika Serikat, Gereja ini mempunyai anggota sekitar 2,5 juta orang, di antaranya 2,3 juta adalah resmi Episkopal, sementara 200.000 sisanya dihitung sebagai 'anggota baptisan lainnya'. Di antara anggota-anggotanya, lebih dari seperempat dari semua presiden Amerika Serikat (lihat: Daftar afiliasi keagamaan Presiden Amerika Serikat).
