May Update

In May, we continued attending lots of Masonic meetings, including the Grand Master's official visit to Bend Lodge.  We also rented and moved into a house in West Linn, although we kept our house in Bend as well.  Above, the kids took part in the Oregon Connections Academy annual National Honor Society Induction.  We again arranged for it to be held at the Wilsonville Shrine Center.  After the induction ceremony, Bryan helped other DeMolay serve at a Shrine dinner for the Imperial Potentate.The next day, we attended the dedication of the new wing of the Shriners Hospital in Portland. We then went on a tour.
Later in the month, we took some of the Bethel 11 girls to the Portland area for the Supreme Visit. First they spent a rainy afternoon in Oaks Park with the Supreme Bethel Honored Queen.That evening, the Grand Bethel performed a Degree of Royal Purple ceremony.
