2012 TEC GC - Reaffirm vows

Purpose

The purpose of The Episcopal Community is to be an authentic Christian community of women who share their spiritual journeys and are mutually encouraged by each other's faith and support. Members take lifetime vows as a response to God's call to live into the Baptismal Covenant more fully and deeply and to live intentionally that we may be more effective disciples in our personal lives, our church, and the world.

Vision Statement

We are women of The Episcopal Church called into community to support one another in a life focused on our Baptismal Covenant in order that we may be more effective disciples in the church and the world.

Prayer of The Episcopal Community

Almighty God, you have called us into covenant through the promises made at baptism and strengthened us for service through your Holy Spirit. Renew within us the power of that Spirit, and lead us, that in our journey into the fullness of your peace, we may bear witness in the world to your redeeming love. Give us each an inquiring mind and discerning heart, the courage to will and to persevere, a spirit to know and love you, and the gift of joy and wonder in all your works. Support us with your presence, O Lord, throughout our ministry. We pray through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
