Die Episkopalkirche von Jerusalem und dem Nahen Osten (engl. Episcopal Church in Jerusalem and the Middle East) ist ein Teil der anglikanischen Kirchengemeinschaft. Ihr Gebiet erstreckt sich über Israel, Palästina, den Irak, Iran, Zypern, Ägypten, Algerien, Tunesien, Libyen, Äthiopien, Somalia, Eritrea, Dschibuti, Bahrain, Katar, Jemen, Oman, VAE und Kuwait. Seit 1975 ist sie selbstständig und besitzt vier Bistümer.
Die Ursprünge gehen ins Jahr 1841 zurück, als von der anglikanischen Kirche von England und der preußisch-lutherischen Kirche ein gemeinsames Bistum Jerusalem gegründet wurde. Dieses wurde 1887 rein anglikanisch.
