ope Francis has created the ecclesiastical province of Las Vegas from dioceses that were previously part of the ecclesiastical province of San Francisco.
The suffragan sees of the new Archdiocese of Las Vegas are the Diocese of Reno and the Diocese of Salt Lake City. The first archbishop of Las Vegas is Bishop George Thomas, who has been bishop of Las Vegas since 2018.
Five California dioceses (Oakland, Sacramento, San Jose, Santa Rosa, and Stockton) remain suffragan sees of the Archdiocese of San Francisco, as does the Diocese of Honolulu.
The ecclesiastical province of Las Vegas is the first province created in the United States since 2004, when the Diocese of Galveston-Houston was raised to the dignity of an archdiocese and given six suffragan sees that were previously part of the province of San Antonio.
Pope elevates booming Las Vegas to a Metropolitan see, creating US’ 35th province with Reno and Salt Lake as suffragans. This is USA's 1st new archdiocese since Houston in 2004.
