The Episcopal Diocese of Hawaii is the ecclesiastical territory or Diocese of the Episcopal Church of the Anglican Communion in the United States encompassing the state of Hawaii . It is led by the Episcopal Bishop of Hawaii Pastor ing the Hawaiian Islands from the Cathedral Church Of Saint Andrew in Honolulu . The territorial jurisdiction which the Episcopal Diocese of Honolulu holds today was given up to American Episcopalians after the Overthrow of Queen Liliuokalani , head of the Church Of Hawaii . The Church of Hawaii, also called the Hawaii Reformed Catholic Church, was established by Kamehameha IV and Emma in 1862 . The king and queen, friends of Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom , were devout members of the Church Of England . Episcopalians continue the Anglican Church of Hawaii tradition of celebrating the Feast Of The Holy Sovereigns each November 28 , in honor of Kamhehameha IV and Queen Emma. |
