The Daughters of the King is an order for women who are communicants of the Episcopal Church, Churches in communion with it, or churches in the historic episcopate but not in communion with it. Today our membership includes women in the Anglican, Episcopal, Lutheran [ELCA] and Roman Catholic churches. The order was founded in 1885 by Margaret J. Franklin at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in New York City (now the Church of the Resurrection). Our Anglican tradition includes Episcopal oversight, Holy Scripture containing all things necessary for salvation, recognition of the gift of the Holy Spirit in Baptism, the real presence of our Lord in the Holy Eucharist and worship according to the Book of Common Prayer.
