Frances Perkins’ Day

Frances Perkins’ life of good work – work that shaped our country and helped so many – has been an inspiration to generations and an icon for how baptized persons live out their ministry in the world.

In recognition of the sum total of her good works and enduring faith, in 2009 the Episcopal Church designated Frances a Holy Woman. She is celebrated in The Episcopal Church liturgical calendar each year on May 13.

Below are some resources – prayers and a template – assembled by the Frances Perkins’ Center your church can use to create a service.
