Daughters of the King

The mission of The Order of the Daughters of the King is the extension of Christ's Kingdom through prayer, service and evangelism.

The Order of the Daughters of the King is an Order for women who are communicants of the Episcopal church, churches in communion with it, or churches in the Historic Episcopate. The Order was founded in 1885 by Margaret J. Franklin at the Church of the Holy Sepulcher (now Church of the Resurrection) in New York City.

Members undertake a Rule of Life, incorporating the Rule of Prayer and the Rule of Service. By reaffirmation of the promises made at Baptism and 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 Julian of Norwich Chapter, Order of the Daughters of the King here at St. Paul's was instituted on May 4, 2001, with 24 charter members. The chapter currently consists of 40 members. The Chapter meets on the Third Thursday of every month. Please contact Melanie Clayton for more information.
