Are you wondering how we came up with naming our group the St. Dorcas Chapter?
St. Dorcas (Greek) was a female apostle, very unusual for the times, and was a good friend of St. Peter. Dorcas was a charitable woman caring for the poor, ill, elderly and widows. She sewed for the needy and fed the hungry. Come join our friendly group as we make blankets for the Grady babies, prepare and serve a dinner to the Agape children, make Palm Crosses, and learn from guest speakers.

UNITED THANK OFFERING
The UTO is a program of the ECW through which empty change boxes are distributed to the parish for individuals to fill as a way of expressing thanks when the Spirit (or extra change) moves them. Proceeds are sent to the National UTO office, where they are used to address compelling human needs though grants and programs that alleviate poverty, both domestic and international.
ANNUAL KICKOFF SUPPER
In addition to monthly Chapter meetings, the ECW hosts a church-wide event for women once a year. ECW kicks off fall chapters at our annual dinner in September. All women are invited to participate in ECW. All women of Saint Anne’s are automatically members of ECW.
