Thank you for your Help With Flower Mart 2025! 
Thank you to everyone who contributed to the success of another year of Flower Mart. Our delicious baked goods were once again a favorite at Flower Mart, with a wonderful selection of cakes, breads, cookies and many other favorite sweets. Our booth made $5,268 for the All Hallows Guild, our second highest contribution to date. All Flower Mart funds will go toward the upkeep and beautification of the Cathedral grounds.

We deeply appreciate those who were able to contribute home-baked goodies, helped with packaging, worked in the booth, or made monetary contributions to offset our costs. Please know how much we appreciate you and your help and look forward to another successful year in 2026.

Your Sisters in Christ,
 
Rosamond Daniels and Karen Cassedy, Co-Chairs

Emergency Relief Fund Established by the Diocese of Washington
 The establishment of the fund was announced by Bishop Marianne Edgar Budde in April 2025:

Not since the early months of the Covid-19 pandemic have so many people in our region experienced economic uncertainty on the scale that we are witnessing now. Sharp and sudden reductions in the federal workforce, changes in federal policies and expenditures, and the determined effort to deport migrants are taking a toll on many we love and hold in our circles of concern. 

In an effort to respond to the immediate economic and humanitarian needs many are facing, the Episcopal Diocese of Washington has established an Emergency Relief Fund to provide direct assistance to those within our congregations and the communities they serve. As during Covid-19, we will distribute those resources through our clergy and congregational leaders. The grant application is straightforward, so that as a diocese we can support and amplify the good pastoral efforts of our congregations.  

Full grant guidelines and the application link are available on the Emergency Relief Fund webpage. Please note that applications must be submitted by clergy and/or wardens of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington. 

Donations to the fund are also welcome on the EDOW website. Please choose "Emergency Relief Fund" from the drop-down menu and complete your donation information.

Vision
As Episcopal Church Women (ECW) we continually strive to embody Christ's vision for the world by loving one another as he loves us. We are committed to taking leadership in identifying social injustices and pursuing action for change in response to our Baptismal Covenant.
Mission
Our mission is to build an accepting atmosphere where every woman is welcomed and valued for her individual ministry.
Motto
The motto of the ECW of the Diocese of Washington is:
Then Jesus answered her, "Woman, great is your faith..." [Matthew 15:28]
