Changes

In 1871, the Russian Orthodox Church in Turkestan was organized as a diocese with its seat in Verne (now called Almaty). Forty-five years later a separate vicariate was created for the Orthodox Church in Kazakhstan with its seat in Verne, whilst in June 1945 the Diocese of Alma-Ata (Almaty) and Kazakhstan was established. As the Soviet Union collapsed this diocese was reorganized into three dioceses and , in October 2010 , the Eparchy of Karaganda was created out of the Eparchies of [[Eparchy of Astana and Almaty|Astana]] and [[Eparchy of Chimkent and Akmola|Chimkent]].

==Eparchy Todaytoday==The Eparchy today includes 29 [[parish|parishes]] and 1 one [[monastery]]. Its seat is located at the [[Cathedral]] of the Entrance of the Mother of God into the [[Temple ]] in Karaganda.
