DAUGHTERS OF THE KING
The Daughters of the Kings is a religious order of women who take lifelong vows to live by the rules of the order, which are daily prayer, service to the church, and evangelism. We wear Greek Fleury crosses as an outward and visible sign that we can nothing holy in our lives without Christ. Because of our vows, we are called an order rather than an organization.
The DOK chapter at Good Shepherd was established in 1977 with 5 Daughters. Currently we have 30 members with 5 ladies in the discernment process. Classes for prospective daughters are held once a year.
We meet once a week by Zoom to pray for the needs of the parish, as well as for individuals who are sick in mind, body, or spirit. We also have members on almost every committee in the church, and respond to special projects the Rector requests. Each year we also take a Retreat to Lake Logan to grow spiritually closer to the Lord and each other.
If any one is interesting in learning more, please feel free to call Lawson Kelly or Ginger Dempsey.
