Purpose
The life of Episcopal Church
Women begins in the local congregation, continues at the diocesan, provincial
and national levels. Each has its own unique characteristics which enable
mission and ministry of women.
The purpose of the organization
at all levels is to assist the women of the Episcopal Church to carry on Christ's
work of reconciliation in the world and to take their place as leaders in the
life, governance and worship of the church.
The Episcopal Church Women
of Rhode Island meet regularly in parishes and around the state to support and
continue parish ministries both old and new.
Prayer for Episcopal
Church Women
Almighty God, our heavenly
Father, bless, we pray thee, our work for the extension of thy Kingdom, and
make us so thankful for the precious gift to us of thy beloved Son, that we
may pray fervently, labor diligently, and give liberally to make him known
to all nations as their Savior and their King; through the same Jesus Christ
our Lord. Amen
— Mary M. Hoppin of RI,
