Dothan Eufaula District

Jacquelyn L. Denson

Presiding Elder

The Dothan Eufaula District is in Southeast Alabama and is comprised of five counties and ten cities, with twenty-one churches and nineteen pastors.

The Dothan-Eufaula District was part of the old “Solid” South Alabama Annual Conference. In 2002, the former Ozark, Dothan-Eufaula, and Troy districts were reorganized into two districts, now known as Dothan-Eufaula and Ozark-Troy. Following boundary changes made in 2010 and ratified by the 49th Session of the General Conference in 2012, the district is now known as the Dothan-Eufaula District of the “Solid” Southeast Alabama Annual Conference.

In September 2026, Bishop Julius McAllister, Jr. appointed the Reverend Dr. Jacquelyn L. Denson as Presiding Elder of the Dothan Eufaula District. She succeeds the Reverend Dr. Frederick D. Sherrod, III.

Presiding Elder Denson brings well over a decade of service as a Presiding Elder in the 9th Episcopal District. In November 2012, Bishop James L. Davis appointed her as a Presiding Elder and assigned her to the Camden District. On October 16, 2018, Bishop Harry L. Seawright appointed her as the first female Presiding Elder of the Montgomery Selma District of the Alabama River Region Conference, where she served until her appointment to Dothan Eufaula.
