==Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints==
In [[the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints]], the term "bishopric" is used to describe the [[Bishop (Latter Day Saints)|bishop]] together with his two counselors, not the [[ward (LDS Church)|ward]] or congregation of which a bishop has charge.
 
==Catharism==
An organization created by the [[Gnosticism|Gnostic]] group known as the [[Catharism|Cathars]] in 1167 called the [[Council of Saint-Félix]] organized Cathar communities into bishoprics, which each had a bishop presiding over a specific division, even though there was no central authority.<ref>{{cite web|author=Joshua J.
