The Daughters of the King
The Daughters of the King is an Order for laywomen who are communicants in the Episcopal Church, of 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.
- Learn more about the order at National Daughters of the King and Diocese of Texas Daughters of the King.
- Meetings are held the second Saturday of the month in the Parish Hall. All women in the church are welcome. Babysitting is provided. Refreshments and fellowship begins at 9:30. The meeting begins at 10:00 and typically finishes before noon.
- Each Sunday after the 9:30 am service a Daughter is available for prayer at the altar rail. We also participate in the Ascension prayer chain. We maintain and update monthly a list of people requesting prayer.
- The Ascension Chapter of the Order of the Daughters of the King is located within the Diocese of Texas and is a member of Province VII. Our outreach efforts include the Mission of Yahweh (a mission for women and children), the Balm of Gilead (encouragement and spiritual support for out-of-town patients at the Medical Center), and foreign missionaries (Esther Miller in Malawi). We have a sister chapter in Uganda. Several of our members participate in the Glory Bound Singers' ministry -- the current Glory Bound Singers' tape is available upon request.
- We also have a chapter of the Junior Daughters of the King at Ascension. It is for girls aged 8 - 18 who feel called to a life of prayer. There are two Senior Daughters sponsoring this group. There are several activities and lock-ins planned for the girls this year. Any girl within the ages of 8 and 18 are welcome to attend a meeting.
