Co-sign!!

I was also in a masonic family! Granddad was a MM and Hi Twelve and Grandmother is an OES. Mom and aunts were Jobs, but I never had the chance to be Job's Daughter, but was a member of the International Order of Rainbow for Girls and am a member of Eastern Star.

We had the same problem with membership. The IORG assembly that my OES chapter sponsored we voted to close down because we were losing girls. I did not know that Job's was looking at lowering the age limit. When I was active with the youth organizations, we saw that the groups were losing members as well at all levels. At one time, when I first came into OES, there was a 25 year age difference between me and the next youngest members.

We cannot let these wonderful groups die out. It's good to see men interested in the Lodge so that potential family members can be active in their respective groups.

Fraternally,

Cheryl
OES
