The Episcopal Diocese of West Tennessee congratulates the Rev. Dr. Dorothy Sanders Wells, Rector of St. George’s Episcopal Church in Germantown, on her election as Bishop to the Episcopal Diocese of Mississippi on Saturday. Mother Dorothy has faithfully pastored St. George’s since 2013, but her prolific writings on faith and Christian spirituality and her advocacy work in Memphis and Shelby County have impacted many outside of our local Episcopal community. We pray for Bishop-Elect Wells, the community of St. George’s, and the Diocese of Mississippi though this time of transition.
“You are called…to be in all things a faithful pastor and wholesome example for the entire flock of Christ.”
