The Roman Catholic Diocese of Phoenix is a Catholic ecclesiastical jurisdiction serving the Phoenix, Arizona area, established in 1969 by Pope Paul VI and led by Bishop Thomas J. Olmsted. It serves a Catholic community of more than 1.2 million people and pursues its mission to help the faithful encounter the living Christ through conversion, communion and solidarity. Based in Phoenix, Arizona, the diocese operates as a faith-centered organization within the Catholic Church and comprises multiple corporate structures. The diocese functions as an equal opportunity employer and maintains an active employment program with vacancies posted on its official site, inviting qualified applicants who uphold church teachings. A notable recent development is the February 2026 launch of the Photina Center for Catholic Counseling, created in partnership with the University of Mary to train mental health professionals in Catholic approaches to human dignity.
