The Archdiocese encompasses the entirety of the former Spanish dependency of Trinidad, including the islands of Trinidad and Tobago. The Archdiocese is the Metropolitan responsible for the suffragan Dioceses of Bridgetown, Georgetown, Paramaribo and Willemstad, and is a member of the Antilles Episcopal Conference. The diocese of Port of Spain was originally erected as a Vicariate Apostolic in 1818 and elevated to an Archdiocese in April 1830. CommunicationsThe Archdiocese has its own special purpose company, Catholic Media Services Limited (CAMSEL), responsible for coordinating communications. The diocesan weekly newspaper, Catholic News, has been published in Trinidad since 1892 and since 2006 has been published by CAMSEL. There is also a local TV station which operates under the aegis of the Archdiocese but is independently owned and operated by the Living Water Community, a public association of Christian Faith founded in Trinidad. The Vicar for Communications is Fr. Robert Christo. Pastoral RegionsThe Archdiocese is divided into six regions known as vicariates and each headed by a regional episcopal vicar.
