Seal of the Episcopal Diocese of Fort Worth

The seal of the Episcopal Diocese of Fort Worth is the symbol of the diocese. The seal was designed at the creation of the diocese by splitting the western counties from the Episcopal Diocese of Dallas in 1983. The Rt. Rev. A. Donald Davies, who was Bishop of Dallas at that time chose to lead the newly created diocese and himself selected the elements of the seal.

The longhorn steer and line represent Fort Worth (whose nickname is Cowtown), the star represents Texas, the two lines represent the Trinity and Brazos rivers which are within the diocese's boundaries, and the griffin for Wales, a reflection of Bishop Davies’ own Welsh heritage. (The seal of the Diocese of Dallas features a lion, the symbol of England.)

This seal is currently being used by two separate organizations calling themselves by the name "Episcopal Diocese of Fort Worth." One is affiliated with the Anglican Church of the Southern Cone, having withdrawn from The Episcopal Church in the USA. The other has been recognized as the legitimate diocese by The Episcopal Church. For more information on this conflict between two dioceses of the same name see Episcopal Diocese of Fort Worth (Episcopal Church) and Episcopal Diocese of Fort Worth (ACNA).
