Opportunities for Prayer at Annual Convention
In addition to the regularly scheduled prayer services at Annual Convention, Daughters of the King will be offering several prayer stations in the Pueblo Convention Center. Stop by to pray with a Daughter or to simply pause in prayer during your time at convention.
About the Order
The Order of the Daughters of the King® is an Order for women who are communicants of the Episcopal Church, churches in communion with it, or churches in the historic episcopate but not in communion with it. Today its membership includes women in the Anglican, Episcopal, Lutheran (ELCA), and Roman Catholic Churches. The Order’s purpose is to bring others into living, loving relationship with Jesus our Lord and to help strengthen the spiritual life of our parishes, which we have been doing since 1885! The Order in Colorado is a community of over 500 women that pray, study together, evangelize by telling personal stories of how Jesus fills their lives, and support their clergy and parishes.
We look forward to seeing you in person at this year’s annual convention.
Prayer for Convention
We invite you to use this prayer before or during your time spent at Annual Convention.
Most intimate and loving God, as we gather together in images and voices of equidistant, sacred geometry, Your Spirit delights and is pleased to dwell in the places of our separate, yet fully interconnected lives. We pray that in this disconcerting time of pandemic we have taken pause and quieted enough to listen—to be nourished in the rich and dark soil of trust and faith. May we respect the truth in each other’s sharing as we seek Your creative, hope-filled way forward as Body and Blessing. Keep us in the strength of now, trusting in the power of Your promise to be with us always in Spirit and Truth regardless of worldly circumstance. Amen.
“On Your Own Time” Prayer Experiences
Here are some “take-away” activities you can use to “seek the sacred.” Use these to quiet yourself to hear what God has for you to do in the “sharing of our future” while engaging in Christian community and your part however small or large in “leading our diocese” while supporting our kingdom communities as followers of Jesus.
