Daughters of the King

This group is currently full.

The Daughters of the King is an order for women who are communicants of the Episcopal Church and churches in communion with it. Included in our membership are Anglican, Episcopal, Lutheran (ELCA) and Roman Catholic women.

At St. Luke’s, the Ruth Chapter meets regularly for prayer and fellowship. Our meetings are from 1:30 pm to 3:00 p.m. We are identified by our silver cross worn at all times.

Even if you are not a member, you can download a free daily devotional app here (Android, iTunes).

The order was founded in 1885 and has chapters all over the world. Founded as a religious order, each Daughter takes a lifetime vow to live Our Rule of Life which requires a spiritual discipline of daily prayer, service and evangelism. Read more about the national organization here.
 
Once a year the Daughters at St. Luke’s Ruth chapter renew their vows.  The Daughters pray for individual members of the Parish each month as well as the needs of many as they are brought to our attention. There are currently 19 active members.  Our rules do not allow us to raise funds, so our financial support comes from the members. The order has sponsored a Haitian child for many years.  We pray for our clergy, members of the parish, and other concerns that are brought to us. We encourage you to bring us your prayer requests and please be assured they are confidential.

Any women interested in the Daughters of the King can contact chapter president Jody Johnson.
