Discipleship
The Order of the Daughters of the King
Purpose: The Daughters of the King is an Order for women who are communicants of the Episcopal Church. Members undertake a Rule of Life, incorporating the Rule of Prayer, and the Rule of Service. By reaffirmation of the promises made at Confirmation, 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.
Requirements to get involved: There is a three-month study program and discernment time led by one of the Daughters. New Daughters are received into The Order during a church service, normally the 4th Sunday in June. Dues and the cost of the cross are paid by the new Daughter.
Meeting time: We meet on the 3rd Sunday of the month after the 11:00 am service.

The Brotherhood of St. Andrew in the Diocese of Texas
Purpose: The Brotherhood of St. Andrew (BStA) is a Men’s Ministry of the Episcopal Church and Anglican Communion. It is based on three disciplines – Prayer, Study, and Service. The Discipline of Prayer means to pray daily for the spread of Christ’s kingdom, especially among men and youth, and for God’s blessings upon the labors of the Brotherhood. The Discipline of Study means to study the Holy Scriptures regularly and the teachings of the Church, to attain a better understanding of how to follow Christ and bring others into his kingdom. The Discipline of Service means to make continuous efforts, week by week, to bring others nearer to Christ through his Church.
Requirements to get involved: All male members of St. Luke’s are asked to prayerfully consider joining during September.
Meeting time: The BStA chapter officers meet via Zoom, as needed; but are seriously considering an in person chapter meeting on a particular Sunday of each month. Please watch for more details.
