Daughters of the King

Prayer and Service

For His Sake

WHAT WE ARE  ABOUT 

The Daughters of the King (DOK) is an Order for laywomen who are communicants of the Episcopal Church, or churches in communion with it.

WHAT TO EXPECT 

Prayer is the foundation from which our service grows.  We find the Order of Daughters of the King to be a safe place in a busy world where we come together and support each other in Christ’s love.  Each Daughter of the King takes a lifetime vow to live by the Rule of the Order.  Our Rule of Life requires a commitment to daily prayer and service.  We also dedicate ourselves to spreading Christ’s kingdom and strengthening the spiritual life of our congregations.

About the Cross

The emblem of the Order is in the form of a modified Greek fleury cross inscribed in Latin,  “Magnanimiter Crucem Sustine”, meaning “With heart, mind and spirit, uphold and bear the cross.”

MINISTRY OPPORTUNITIES

Through her Rule of Service, a Daughter seeks daily to do the will of God and be Christ’s faithful servant.  She promises to take part regularly in the worship, study, and work of the Church and render, at all times, aid to the clergy as requested for the building-up of the congregation.

OUR PLANS AND FUTURE

Empowered by the Holy Spirit, our vision as Daughters of the King is to know Jesus Christ, to make Him known to others, and to become reflections of God’s love throughout the world.
