I am a member of the African Methodist Episcopal Church and I must say yesterday history was made, by the first elected female bishop in my great church. I'm not a member of your proud and illustrious organization but I've noticed that Deltas make massive impacts and improvements in the world. I commend you all and the new bishop. Blessings to all!

I'm so proud of Rev. Dr. Vashti McKenzie being elected Bishop of the AME Church...not just because she is female or that she black or the fact that she is a member of this illustrious organization; however I'm excited at the face when the Southern Baptist Church ruled that women can't preach in the pulpit, GOD saw fit to place a WOMAN in such a high authoritive position! This was truly HIS doing and has blessed her beyond measure. She is truly a woman that I respect and admire. I've heard her only once at a program at my school (VUU) w/ a collegue of hers (Ann-Lightner Fuller) and her message still rings in my heart to this day.

I am so proud of Soror McKenzie being named a Bishop. I am a member of the African Methodist Episcopal and a member of Delta Sigma Theta, which made this history making event even sweeter. I pray God's blessings on our new Bishop.

Although personally I am not one for women in the pulpit, Soror Vashti Murphy McKenzie was AWESOME at the service on Sunday in Chicago. The woman is BADD! I must give her her props without hesitation.
