St. Christopher’s is delighted to welcome The Rev. Brandt Dick as our new Rector, beginning September 6, 2026. Brandt joins us from St. James’ Episcopal Church in Greenville, Mississippi, where he served as Rector since 2014. Over the past twenty years, he has served the Episcopal Church in the Diocese of Mississippi in a variety of ministries, including as Vicar/Hospice Chaplain at St. John’s Church in Aberdeen, Chaplain/Associate Rector at Trinity Episcopal Church in Natchez, and Rector of St. James’ in Greenville.

Brandt’s journey to the Episcopal Church began when he met and fell in love with his wife, Erica, a lifelong Episcopalian. Before becoming an Episcopalian, Brandt was a Southern Baptist – by his own admission, “a very bad one.” He jokes that he has been a much better Episcopalian, which may explain why, only a few years after his confirmation, he found himself in discernment for the priesthood.

Brandt received his M.Div. from the School of Theology at Sewanee in 2005. Before seminary, he taught chemistry, physics, and calculus at McComb High School. He is a mathematician by training and temperament, while chemistry and physics remain favorite hobbies. As Brandt puts it, he is “a bit of a nerd.”

Brandt and Erica have four children. Their oldest, Zachary, is married to Anna Gail, and they live in Knoxville, Tennessee. Their daughter Lucy is a sophomore at Sewanee; she was adopted from China as a two-year-old. Their younger children, Jacob and Evvie, are 11 and 9 and joined the family after Brandt and Erica fostered them for several years.

Erica holds a master’s degree in special education and has taught a variety of grades and subjects over the years, most recently fourth grade.

They are excited about beginning this new chapter and are grateful for the warm welcome they have already received.
