The Diocese of Penza (Russian: Пензенская епархия) is a diocese (eparchy) of the Russian Orthodox Church, uniting parishes and monasteries in the middle part of the Penza region (within the borders of Bessonovsky, Gorodishchensky, Kamensky, Mokshansky, Nizhnelomovsky, Penza and Shemysheysky districts). It is part of the Penza Metropolitanate.

The ruling bishop is Metropolitan Serafim (Domnin) of Penza and Nizhnelomov (since December 25, 2013). In 1745, the territory of the modern Penza diocese came under the jurisdiction of the Astrakhan bishop and remained as such until 1758.^[1]
