Advent 2016: Family Program
During Advent this year, Holy Family’s Junior Daughters of the King chapter led a family Advent program on Wednesday evenings. Families took turns supplying a soup supper, and activities were led by Jr. DOK leaders Ruth Everett and Kristine Canter. It was a special way to reflect on the weekly Advent themes and spend time with our church family.
Daughters of the King – Officer Installation
On Sunday, December 4th, the Hannah Chapter of the Order of the Daughters of the King installed its 2016-17 officers. Pictured from left to right are Treasurer Ruth Everett, President-Elect Kristine Canter, Secretary Kris Brown, and President Cathy French.
Daughters of the King are Christian women, both lay and ordained, who are strengthened through the discipline of a Rule of Life, and supported through the companionship of their sisters. They are at different stages of their Christian journeys – some have just begun and some have been on this path for a long time. But no matter where they are on their sacred journeys, their primary goal is the same – to know Jesus Christ and to make Him known to others.

Jr. DOK Prayer Hike
On October 9th, seven of the Mary & Martha Jr. Daughters of the King picnicked at and hiked through Ritchey Woods in Fishers. It was a beautiful afternoon as their co-directresses led them on a nature walk and discussed the day’s homily. The event ended with a discussion of upcoming activities and plans for the rest of the year.

Junior Daughter Cookie Exchange
Our newest class of prospective Junior Daughters of the King recently began their prayer study. Following the session, all current Junior Daughters joined the new class with their mothers to enjoy a Christmas cookie exchange. Please pray for all of these young women and their families as they continue their journey toward becoming Junior Daughters of the King.

On a chilly Monday evening in November, a candlelight service was held for the Mary & Martha Chapter of the Jr. Daughters of the King. This service of preparation for Junior membership takes place before prospective members begin a three-month study and discernment period. During this service, four new candidates promised to be faithful in their study and preparation for membership in The Order.
Zoe Bruns, Sophia Paden, Katlyn Stahly, and Maci Blake and were welcomed and supported by several of the current Junior and Senior Daughters, along with the Jr. DOK co-directresses (Kristine Canter and Ruth Everett) and Fr. Mike, who led the service. For more information about Junior Daughters of the King, please contact our church office. admin@hfec.org
Daughters of the King Spiritual Retreat
The Hannah Chapter of the Order of the Daughters of the King held a spiritual retreat titled “Rhythm of the Heart.” The retreat was facilitated by the Reverend Michelle Roos, Diocesan Chaplain for Daughters of the King. Throughout the retreat, Daughters were invited to participate in Compline, Morning Prayer, Eucharist, bible study, and fellowship time. Many of the activities were accompanied by joyful and interpretive drumming and singing.
