Episcopal Church Women
As Episcopal Church Women (ECW), we are keepers of the Christian faith who joyfully bear the light and hope of Jesus Christ to all. We worship together and celebrate our diversity as we build and strengthen our community. We take ministries that the Lord gives us to do and do them joyfully. Our ECW brings women of the parish together for worship, fellowship and gathering of ideas and planning community outreach. All women are welcome.

Sisters of Bede
The Sisters of Bede is a group of St. Bede women who write, and present a religious musical program with popular songs. Our habits look authentic; copied from The Flying Nun movie. It’s a fun group with a strong message. Recently we presented, “Noah: The Musical.” We once performed at a hospital to cheer one of our St. Bede parishioners. We have performed for such celebrities as The Bishop of SW Florida, The Rt. Rev. Dabney Smith, Bishop!

St. Bede’s Altar Guild
The liturgy of the Episcopal Church is what makes it so remarkable. One of the most significant ministries in the church, Altar Guild is open to anyone who finds their spiritual home in the preparation of the Lord's Table. The Altar Guild prepares every aspect of the Eucharist and assist also at weddings, funerals, and baptisms. This is a regular commitment to the life of the church, as well as a fellowship opportunity as you work with other parishioners to prepare for all aspects of worship.
