Richmond Assembly held its first Program after 18 months for our sponsoring Lodge, Metropolitan #11. Performing the Pot of Gold Lecture with my Rainbow sisters was something I truly missed doing and I am so happy to be able to do it again. They are wonderful supporters of our Assembly and we gave the Master of the Lodge a Rainbow pocket square and one of Dad McLaughlin’s pins.

Grand Assembly was such a great experience. Being able to see everyone again and have our traditional Grand Assembly after over a year couldn’t have been better. We also saw Grace being initiated into our Order, and into our Assembly. It really made it feel like Virginia Rainbow was going back to its ways during these challenging times.

                I had an amazing time again at Grand Assembly this year! I saw a few of my Rainbow sisters that I haven’t seen for a while. I loved that I got to meet our Rainbow sisters from Connecticut, and one of our sisters from North Carolina. I have made so many new friends at Grand, and I know that our friendship will last as we continue to get older. Vanessa’s term was amazing, and I enjoyed getting to be apart of it! I am really excited to see what Kaitlyn will do for her term.

Hi my name is Grace and I have recently been initiated at Grand Assembly.

Being initiated into Rainbow was an experience. I’ll never forget the feeling of walking around in front of a bunch of people and being nervous but also excited at the same time. And having support from my Rainbow sisters really meant a lot to me. Being a part of a sisterhood for the first time fills my heart with joy.  The representation for the colors of the rainbow are the teaching of morals values and loyalty that I will take with me throughout life. And I look forward to creating relationships with my fellow sisters and being able to participate in all the upcoming events.
