The Brandywine Hundred Deanery is blessed with a dedicated team of leaders who work tirelessly to support our parishes and foster a vibrant Catholic community. The deanery leadership team plays a crucial role in guiding the spiritual and administrative functions of the deanery, ensuring that our mission to proclaim God’s Word, celebrate the Eucharist, form community, and serve others is fulfilled with compassion and dedication.

At the heart of our leadership team is the Dean, appointed by the Bishop to act as his representative within the deanery. The Dean oversees the spiritual needs of the priests and parishioners, coordinates pastoral activities, and ensures that the Bishop’s vision and directives are effectively implemented. Working alongside the Dean are the pastors of the parishes within the deanery, various assistant leaders, council members, and dedicated staff who contribute their talents and expertise to the well-being and growth of our community.

The Deanery Leadership page is designed to introduce you to these key individuals, providing you with insights into their backgrounds, roles, and contributions. Our leaders are committed to fostering a collaborative and supportive environment where every parish and parishioner can thrive. We invite you to learn more about our leadership team and to reach out with any questions, concerns, or suggestions you may have.
