Daughters of the KingFebruary Meeting
St. Mark’s Chapter members of The Order of the Daughters of the King will hold its monthly meeting on Saturday, Feb. 8. The meeting will begin with Morning Prayer at 9 a.m. and will end promptly at 11 a.m. After Morning Prayer, there will be a short business meeting followed by a study using the curriculum and a study guide, “The Way of Love” series presented by Presiding Bishop Michael Curry. This month’s topic is Worship. It will begin with the podcast of a lecture by The Most Rev. Curry, followed by questions and discussion. All meetings are open to all women to attend and participate, especially if they are interested in learning more about the Order or are contemplating exploring membership. To become a Daughter, each person must go through a three-month discernment period, which includes answering written questions and weekly Study Guide sessions led by current members. The Study Guide includes information on the history, practices and guidelines of the Order. At the end of discernment, each participant will have the opportunity to decide if they are called and ready to enter the Order. There is no obligation to join the Order. For questions or more information, contact Karen Kennedy-Hall at 352-445-3075 or send an e-mail to klkhall3@gmail.com. Save the Date - ECW Annual MeetingSpring Membership Meeting
