Nassau was established as a diocese on July 5, 1960.  On June 22, 1999, the diocese was again elevated. This Ecclesiastical Province consisted of the Diocese of Nassau, the Diocese of Hamilton-in-Bermuda and the Mission of the Turks and Caicos Islands.  Nassau was named the Metropolitan See and thus elevated to the dignity of Archdiocese.  The Archdiocese has a population 52,279.

The Archdiocese of Nassau is currently served by 18 priests, 19 deacons and 10 religious sisters.  There are 4 high schools, 6 elementary schools and 1 special needs school.  *A high school, an elementary school and the 'special needs' school have been temporarily closed due to devastation from Hurricane Dorian.

The Archdiocese of Nassau is a member of the Antilles Episcopal Conference of Bishops (A.E.C.).
