Visiting a GFS meeting, service activity, or retreat day is a great way to discover how membership in GFS can impact your life. Come with a friend or family member. Find a branch in your area or send an inquiry to  NationalPresident@gfsus.org.

Membership is open to all girls and young women of any race, religion or ethnic group from age 5 through 30. As the organization is affiliated with the Episcopal Church, members, parents and guardians should be aware that activities do include Christian worship and service within the Episcopal Church. Nevertheless, a girl must not be a church member to join.

Requirements for Formal Admission

To be formally admitted to the branch, a member must:

• have attended four meetings

• learned the GFS prayer and motto

• become familiar with the history of GFS

• understand the promises they will make at the Admission Service

The Branch Advisor will organize an Admission Service, assisted by the parish priest, to which family and friends may be invited.

Levels of Membership and Uniform

The branch may be divided into the following suggested age groups:

• Juniors: 5 – 11 years

• Intermediates: 11 – 14 years

• Seniors: 14 – 21 years

• Ambassadors: 18 – 30 years

Members are encouraged to wear the GFS uniform, a white shirt, navy skirt, or pants. In some dioceses, scarves or vests are available to complete the uniform. The uniform is not necessary to wear to meetings but is required at certain special events.
