daughters of the king: who we are
The Order of the Daughters of the King is open to all women who are communicants of the Episcopal Church, churches in communion with it, or churches in the Historic Episcopate. Our membership includes women in the Anglican, Episcopal, Lutheran (ELCA) and Roman Catholic churches.
We are an Order, not an organization. A daughter pledges herself to a life-long program of prayer, service, and evangelism, dedicated to the spread of Christ's Kingdom and to the strengthening of the spiritual life of her parish. Daughters of the King have made the commitment to serve God and wear crosses as an outward and visible sign that they cannot live a day without Christ in their lives. They are a community of nurturing women, accepting all people, bridging differences and cherishing traditions. Moving toward the 21st century, empowered by the Holy Spirit, their vision is to encourage and enable all to be reflections of God's love, reaching out through prayer, service and evangelism to spread His kingdom.

Motto
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?
