Welcome
The 39 Episcopal churches in Delaware have a long, rich history of worship and service in this growing state. Our schools, youth camp, retreat center, and outreach ministries are visible signs of our commitment to the Christian values of generosity, compassion, faith, and hospitality. This website is intended to be a gateway and a resource, as well as a news source. I hope you will contact one of our churches directly and plan to visit on a Sunday. There is no better way to learn about the Episcopal Church and our ministry here in the Diocese of Delaware.
Faithfully, Wayne P. Wright, Bishop of Delaware
