As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.

DAUGHTERS OF THE KING

The Order of the Daughters of the King is an international community of Episcopal, Anglican, Lutheran (ELCA), and Roman Catholic women who take vows to pray and serve our Lord Jesus Christ every day. Becoming a member professes the intentionality to pray and serve. We model the importance of prayer and service in our parishes and in the larger church.

BIBLE STUDY

On Wednesdays at 10:00 a.m. the clergy lead a weekly in-person Bible Study in the Reflection Room. Together we read and reflect on the lectionary scripture lessons for the upcoming Sunday. This is a wonderful way to deepen your faith and understanding of the Bible. No RSVPs or advanced reading is needed--just drop in when you can.
