Episcopal Church Women
We welcome you to ECW and hope you will join us in our mission and ministry here at Atonement.
We meet monthly to discuss and plan outreach projects.
You are invited to join us for these meetings.
The meeting dates are in our church services bulletins and
announced on Sunday mornings.
PURPOSE
The purpose of this organization shall be to empower the women of The Episcopal Church to carry out Christ’s work throughout the world.
VISION
As the eyes, ears, hands, and heart of Christ in the world, we will persist in the work of healing, justice, and peace.
LIVING THE MINISTRY
To live Christ's ministry we:
Listen to voices of women worldwide;
Promote educational, spiritual, and social programs which minister to women and children;
Provide opportunities and tools to grow relationships with God and others through spirituality, prayer, and worship; and
Encourage the development of women's leadership by example in stewardship, training, and education.
And as we pursue furthering God's kingdom here on earth, we use the Five Marks of Mission, developed by the Anglican Consultative Council and adopted by The Episcopal Church's General Convention, to help frame our thinking about mission and ministry. The Five Marks are:
To proclaim the Good News of the Kingdom
To teach, baptize and nurture new believers
To respond to human need by loving service
To seek to transform unjust structures of society
To strive to safeguard the integrity of creation and sustain and renew the life of the earth
