"Color Of Life"

Theme:

God created light

and as we surround ourselves

with love, laughter and dreams,

may our lives become a kaleidoscope of color.

Aim:

To share a burst of vibrant color with our sisters

and brothers and to spread a splash of color

throughout our subordinate chapters,

Grand Chapter and General Grand Chapter.

Goal:

For our subordinate chapters to color themselves

proficient in the ritualistic work of our Order.

Worthy Grand Matron's Scripture:

"And God said: Let there be light and there was light."

Genesis 1:3

Worthy Grand Patron's Scripture:

shall renew their strength;

they shall mount up with wings as eagles,
