The Anna Luckett Chapter of Daughters of the King was established in 1987. We have a dedicated and loyal group of ladies who are meeting at a new time, which is the second Tuesday of the month at 11:30 in the Parish Hall. We begin the meeting with prayer and our motto and then conduct new business. We have begun a program of writing cards to ill and shut-ins on the prayer list. We conclude with a prayer circle ending in the Lord's Prayer. We look forward to a new year of prayer, service, and bringing others to Christ.
National Daughters of the King
Vision Statement: 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.
Who We Are: 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 pledgees 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.
Mission of Order: The object of this Order shall be the extension of Christ's Kingdom through Prayer, Service, and Evangelism.
The Motto of the Order:
For His Sake...
I am but one, but I am one.
I cannot do everything, but I can do something.
What I can do, I ought to do.
What I ought to do, by the grace of God I will do.
Lord, what will you have me do?
About the cross: 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..."
The emblem, never wavering from the original design, has been trademarked for the exclusive use of the Order. The cross is worn at all times. It is customarily worn on the left side over the heart or it may be worn on a silver chain around the neck, but it is never to be worn simply as an ornament. Only a member in good standing may wear the cross of the Order, which remains the property of the Order. when a Daughter dies, her coss may be buried with her or iincorporated into her memorial; otherwise, it must be returned to the National Office.
Now that you've read a little about us, and you feel called to a life of prayer service and evangelism, please contact the National office for guidance.
