Daughter's of the King

President: Judi Losh

Secretary: Pat McKenzie

Treasurer: Dianna Baker

The Daughters of the King serve as a clearinghouse for spiritual development and programs within our parish. They intend to sponsor several events throughout the year such as a special study on prayer in October and November and a parish quiet day in November. They are also planning some special things for Advent. More information will be appearing soon about these specific programs. They will limit their business and planning meetings to one per quarter.

The Daughters of the King is a lay Order for women who are communicants of the Episcopal Church, or churches in communion with it, or churches who are in the Historic Episcopate. Members undertake a Rule of Life, incorporating the Rule of Prayer and the Rule of Service. By reaffirmation of the promises made at Confirmation, a Daughter pledges herself to a life-long program of prayer, service and evangelism, dedicated to the spread of Christ's Kingdom and the strengthening of the spiritual life of her parish.

The emblem of the Order is in the form of a modified Greek Fleury cross inscribed in Latin, Magnanimiter Crucem Sustine, the watchword of the Order, meaning "With heart, mind and spirit uphold and bear the cross." At the base of the cross are the letters "FHS," initials that stand for the Motto of the Order: "For His Sake..."
