DEVOTIONAL SOCIETIES 

While all prayer is important, we believe that praying in community with others can be especially beneficial. At St. Luke’s, devotional societies offer additional ways to grow in faith together.

DAUGHTERS OF THE KING

The Order of the Daughters of the King is a spiritual sisterhood of women dedicated to a life of prayer, service, and evangelism. They make a commitment to Jesus to find community and spiritual support from a group of women.

The St. Luke’s chapter is composed of a group of women with varied interests, beliefs, and abilities who study, work, and pray for the spread of God’s Kingdom.  We are a loving, supportive, and welcoming group of women; if you are interested in learning more, please contact us or talk to a Daughter, who can be identified by a small silver fleur-de-lis cross worn habitually.

 

GUILD OF ALL SOULS

The Guild of All Souls was founded in England in 1873, and an American branch was recognized in 1889. Members of the Guild promote the Church’s teaching in regard to the Faithful Departed. Members commit to pray regularly for the dying and for the dead; encourage Christian customs at the time of death, including litanies and the reservation of Eucharist; support and assist with traditional rites of Christian burial and the celebration of requiem Eucharists; and uphold the spiritual significance of the two great doctrines of the Apostle’s Creed: the Communion of Saints and the Resurrection of the Dead.

If you are interested in learning more or in becoming a member of this guild, please contact Fr. Brian.
