The Bishop of Chile is a bishop in the Anglican communion, the head of the Anglican Diocese of Chile within the Anglican Church of South America. [1]
The diocese was founded in 1963 from the Diocese of the Falkland Islands.
The diocesan seat is the Santiago Community Church in Santiago.[2] The incumbent diocesan bishop is Tito Zavala (born 1954), who was appointed in 2000.
