We have made a commitment to Jesus as our Savior, and we follow Him as Lord of our lives. We are an Order for women who are communicants of the Episcopal Church, churches in communion with it, or churches in the Historic Episcopate.

Daughters of the King News
I am happy to report great joyous news. After over thirty-three years, Lorraine Brumskine returned to Liberia to visit her family and homeland. She departed on February 23rd and returned in April. During her stay in Liberia, she also visited the Sons and Daughters of the King of the Episcopal Church in Buchanan. In the coming weeks, Lorraine will give us an update on how our shipments of supplies are being utilized there.
Lorraine has recently informed us that the schools, run by the churches, are in
critical need of supplies. The schools need children’s textbooks in math, science, social studies, and language arts. There are not enough books to provide for their learning. If anyone has access to textbooks (yes, even older ones) they would be more than happy to receive them. Also, we are actively seeking donations of all kinds of children’s reading books (trade books), and workbooks, and school supplies such as writing paper, note-books, pencils, pens, crayons, scissors, glue, etc. Every donation helps keep the schools running and the children getting the precious gift of an education. We hope to send out our next shipment of supplies in late spring.
Please, give what you can.
For His Sake, Susan Grant
President of the Martha and Mary Chapter of the DOK
Motto
For His Sake….I am but one, but I am one.
I cannot do everything, but I can do something.
What I can do, I ought to do. What I ought to do, by the grace of God, I will do.
Lord, what will you have me do?
