St. Clare Chapter

 

Magnanimiter Crucem Sustine

"With heart, mind and spirit uphold and bear the cross"

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?

The Daughters of the King is an organization within the church, comprised of women with common goals. Those goals are a nurturing of women, acceptance of all people, the bridging of differences, and the cherishing of traditions.

These goals are brought about through the Rule of Prayer and the Rule of Service. All Daughters of the King have their own Rule of Prayer, individual to her personality or circumstance, but she does pray every day. Something that is part of every Daughter's Rule, however is praying for the spread of Christ's Kingdom, for God's blessing upon the Order, and for spiritual growth, both for the Daughter, and for the parish and its clergy.

The Rule of Service is simply the application of the baptismal vow. That being, to be Christ's faithful servant here on Earth, to participate in worship, study, and work of the Church, and to render aid to the clergy of the church for the spiritual up building of the parish.

The St. Clare Chapter of the Daughters of the King received its charter in May, 1999.
For more information, you may contact any of the Daughters.
