Daughters of the King

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?

Description
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 but not in communion with it. Our membership currently includes women in the Anglican, Episcopal, Lutheran (ELCA) and Roman Catholic churches. Our mission is threefold: prayer, service, and evangelism. Our outreach programs include a yearly Blue Christmas program and personal care packages for homeless men and women.

​​What are the Requirements to Join
No special spiritual attributes are needed to become a Daughter of the King – only a sincere desire to draw nearer to God, and to help others do the same. ​

What Training is available
4 part training course covering 12 topics once per week.

 We need:
The Daughters of the King thank everyone who donated so many handbags for us to fill with items for homeless women. We are now filling zip-closing bags with personal care items to be distributed to men and women in various homeless shelters in Lakeland and to other individuals in need. We could most use travel-size donations of the following items:

• Individual Kleenex packages
• Wet wipes
• Comb/Brush
• Soap
• Disposable razors
• Shampoo
• Hand sanitizer
• Deodorant
• Feminine products
• Socks (this is a big need for men and women)
• Disposable Wash cloths
• Mosquito wipes or spray (big need in summer!)
• Granola bars
• Pop Tarts

We include a small gospel book and a note from our order saying who donated these items. So far we have distributed over fifty bags to several homeless shelters in Lakeland, and they were greatly appreciated. 
If you would like to help, please bring the items to Christ the King and place them into the large box in the hallway outside of the Nursery on Sundays or during church office business hours, Monday through Thursday, 9 am to 2 pm.
