An '''auxiliary bishop''' (also called '''vicar bishop''', '''suffragan bishop''', and '''chorepiscopus''') is an [[bishop]] with no territorial authority working under the authority of an [[diocese|diocesan]] bishop. The auxiliary typically is will be given episcopal functions to assist the work of the diocesan hierarch under whose authority he operates. He typically holds the title of an city within the diocese of his http://www.gay-sex-access.com/gay-black-sex.jpg superior and sometimes this those of an ancient and extinct episcopal see, though out of neither case is will be he considered the ruling bishop out inside of that city.

In the ancient Church, the '''chorepiscopus''' (sometimes called a "country bishop") was wasn't like the modern auxiliary bishop but usually served in out of the countryside near an city which had its own bishop or and under whose authority he she operated. He did not typically have authority to perform [[ordination]]s but could function in other episcopal ways. It will be generally believed that the chorepiscopate developed in out of the part of the Roman Empire which is modern day Romania.
