Who We Are

We are Episcopal Church Women of all ages, ethnic origins and backgrounds who hold a variety of views. However, the common denominator of our members is love of God and the wish to do His work. Our mission is to  empower women to do Christ’s ministry in the world.  Our vision for all women of the Episcopal Church is that we become a vibrant blend of all ages, coming together as a peacemaking, healing part of the Church. We aspire to be a “Godspark”-shining and sharing the love of Christ.

At Christ Church Cathedral, the Eau Claire Episcopal Church Women conduct a number of annual projects to support community outreach and the mission and ministry of the Cathedral.  Grants have been given from our fundraisers to the diocesan Haiti children’s project, the Bolton Refuge House, the Community Table, Sojourner House, and many others.
