As a young mother,
a full time elementary teacher, and an active member of my church, it
seemed I was too busy to join anything that would take more time. However
. . . an active King's Daughter approached . . . our Bible Study group
about forming a Circle. I was invited to the 2nd or 3rd meeting and I
joined. Why? They were friends, we were already a "group" through
church, and we identified with the purposes of the Order. It provided
another source of adult company, an opportunity for service in the community,
and a spiritual uplift. In 1997, my husband
and I attended a "Soup's On" event sponsored by Benefit Circle
as a fund raiser for the Red Cross, and we asked about the organization.
I was invited to attend a meeting and joined within that year... this
joining of voices and hands significantly adds purposefulness and direction...
I learned about the impressive history of the Wisconsin Branch started
in 1887, and its service to the community... the history of The King's
Daughters and Sons, what it has represented through the years along with
the Religious, Educational and Philanthropic pillars are worthy goals
in a world needing compassion for ALL God's children. |
