What is the ECW?

All women who attend the Church of the Holy Communion are automatically members of the Episcopal Church Women. No joining and no dues!
The purposes of the ECW of Holy Communio include promoting fellowship with each other and promoting leadership in the life, governance, worship and hospitality of the church.

Fellowship

We invite all women to consider participation in one of our women's groups this year. Each group has a different purpose, flavor and meeting time. Presently, there are three ECW guilds which meet once a month – some meet in homes, others meet at the church. Please contact the person below for more information on that guild.

All Saint’s Guild Meetings: 10:30 a.m. on the second Tuesday of the month

Altar Guild welcomes people who want to train to do altar work. This year they are especially looking for people to serve before and after the 5:30 Sunday services.

The Order of the Daughters of the King is an order of laywomen of The Episcopal Church who pledge themselves to a lifelong program of prayer, service and evangelism. Regular meetings are held each month at which time members participate in study activities to increase their knowledge and faith. Each woman called to this ministry prays daily for specific individuals, parishioners and those for whom parishioners have requested prayer. All names and circumstances are kept confidential.
