Daughters of the King

DOK (Daughters of the King) is an Episcopal order for women founded in 1885. Members undertake a Rule of Life, incorporating the Rule of Prayer and Rule of Service. A  Daughter pledges herself to a life-long program of prayer, service and evangelism, dedicated to the spread of Christ's Kingdom and the strengthening of the spiritual life of her parish. All daughters wear daily a cross as a symbol of commitment of their hearts, minds, and spirits. In addition to the church's prayer list, DOK maintains an unpublished prayer list. The Daughters knit prayer shawls for the sick, serve as hostesses for funeral receptions, and participate in outreach work.  DOK is also a support group for our priest, who serves as the chaplain for our chapter.

Meetings are held the second Monday of each month in the Hogan Room.

 DOK's 2023 outreach project to pack children's bags so that each Lenoir Police Cruiser
will have one  to help children they encounter during a traumatic event, such as a domestic violence incidence or a traffic accident.
