The Diocese of West Missouri is pleased to announce that the Very Rev. Jean Long has been elected as Dean of Northwest-Metro Deanery!
The Very Rev. Jean Long grew up in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and was very active in The Diocese of Oklahoma youth and college ministries. She holds a B.S. in Nutritional Sciences from Oklahoma State University and an M.S. in Nutritional Sciences from the University of Oklahoma. She and her husband, Paul, moved to Kansas City in 1997. During that time, she worked as a dietitian until becoming a stay-at-home mom to their three daughters.
When the Very Rev. Jean entered the workforce again, she listened to God’s call in her life and shifted her focus away from dietetics and towards ministry.
