ECW Symbol

  • The circle represents hope for wholeness in our lives and others.

  • The cross represents our life in Christ and serving Christ in the world.

  • The out flowing lines from the center depict the many works of the Episcopal Church Women, going out into the world.

  • The intertwined lines represent our lives centered in Christ.

Episcopal Church Women’s Prayer:

Almighty God, bless we pray, our work in mission and ministry in the world and make us so thankful for the precious gift of your beloved Son, that we may pray fervently, labor diligently and give liberally to make known throughout the world the redeeming love of our Savior. Amen.

ECW Mission Statement

We are Episcopal Church Women committed to one another and called to be witnesses for Christ.

Our challenge is to provide a safe place

where every woman is free to become

the person Christ created her to be.

We are called. We are different. We are one body.

 

Regular meetings are held the First Monday (with a few exceptions) of each month from September - May (see calendar below).  Location: Room 24 upstairs   Time: 11:00am (please note new time as of 2008)

 

We also have special events all through the year on weekends and at nights.  Please see our calendar below  for details.

 

Our programs are during First Monday Lunch at 11:45am in the Parish Hall with informative and entertaining speakers and is open to men and women.  Reservations for lunch are not required.  A $3.00 donation is requested to reimburse the cooks.

 

Childcare available in Carpenter Hall in the first room on your right for both the ECW regular meeting and First Monday Lunch.  Please contact Elizabeth Abts (970-0586) by the Friday before for childcare reservations.

The Senior Ladies also meet the second Monday of each month for lunch and fellowship.  Contact Jane Pounds (995-9916) for details.
