We are a community of women whose mission is to offer a program of worship, study, service, fellowship, and opportunities for development which will strengthen their spiritual lives and lead them into service for the church. All Women of the Church are welcome.
The Cross represents Christ and our service to Him in the world. The Circle stands for our hope for wholeness in our lives. The out flowing lines from the center depict the many works of the Episcopal Church Women, going out into the world. The intertwined lines represent our lives centered in Christ.
Episcopal Church Women's Prayer
Almighty God, we pray that you will bless our work in mission and ministry in the world. Make us so thankful for the power of your love, given through your son, Jesus that we may pray, labor and give liberally to make known that love throughout the world. Bless us that our lives may shine forth the joy and wonder we share in your name. Amen
Who We Are
We are Episcopal Church Women of all ages, ethnic origins and socioeconomic backgrounds who hold a variety of views. However, the common denominator of our members is love of God and the wish to do His work.
Mission

How We Operate

Supper clubs are an excellent way of getting to know fellow parishioners in our church. The clubs were started in 1998 and have been very successful. Members who are interested in participating sign up in the fall and attend a dinner in January at the Church. During this kick-off dinner, individuals and couples meet with their newly designated group of ten to twelve and schedule their first monthly dinner gathering. Thereafter, the individual clubs meet at the convenience of the majority of club members, the group members rotating as hosts. Supper Clubs are not limited to weekends, and many clubs meet during the week. Contact Liz Hall, 715-0307 for current information.
