We arrived at the Lodge at 5:30pm and we got the dining room set up and unloaded Mom Belinda’s car with all the food.  One of the containers spilled in the back of her car and it looked bad but smelled good!  We started serving dinner after the prayer at 6:30pm.  For dinner we had Butter chicken and tofu, rice, salad, dessert, coffee, lemonade and iced tea.  The Rainbow Girls that served dinner were Gigi, Dalanie, JoElla, Akshita, Lilli and me.  We all helped to clean up and we were done early and were able to go home by 8pm.

On February 27th, Manassas Assembly #13 held an Initiation during the meeting. We initiated Emma. The girls at the meeting were myself, Katie, Kate, Dalanie, Zoey, Gigi, Vanessa, Sami, M’Balu, Alyssa, Jazmyn, Maribel, Lillian, Batu, and Ashley. Gigi, Vanessa, Kate and Sami had to protem: Vanessa doing the part of Love, Gigi doing the part of Faith, Kate doing Chaplain for Initiation and her own part as Worthy Associate Advisor and Sami, amazingly, stepping in at the last minute to do the part of Chaplain for Opening/Closing and Service in addition to doing her own part, Patriotism. Kate won the necklace for her amazing performance as Worthy Associate Advisor and Chaplain. Overall, the Initiation was amazing! I had lots of fun, and I’m happy we now have a new member of the Assembly!

On February 10th Manassas Assembly visited the residents of MAHOVA.  We handed out Valentine cards!  We had a great time interacting with the residents ~ so many of them had such great stories to share!

We met the King and Queen of the home, Ed and Paula Swansey and had our picture taken with them.  We also met a lady that is 101 years old, and boy does she look amazing! 

I can’t wait to write letters to them and share more stories.  We only had 2 hours to visit, which was not nearly enough time.  Hopefully we can plan another visit soon!

Manassas Assembly #13

On November 11, 2017, Manassas Assembly celebrated the people who have earned the Grand Cross of Color degree with a ceremony and Lasagna dinner.  The cake to celebrate was good!  It was followed by us making Christmas cards for the residents at MAHOVA.  Zoey W. organized the event.  She had great decorations and she had the tables arranged in a cross to celebrate the occasion.  We were able to honor:  Gigi, Mom Cherry, Dad Bill, and Mom Jean during the ceremony.  The girls who were there included:  Gigi, Katie, Kate, Delanie, Zoey W., Vanessa, Joella, Sami, Abigail, and me.  Zoey’s little brother Sam was also there.  Adults who were there for the event were:  Mom Priscilla, Dad Tom, Dad Bill, Mom Cherry, Dad Clancy, Mom and Dad Wertman, Mom Paula, Mom Robin (missed the ceremony but was there for cards), Mom Joanne, Mom Ange, and Mom Louisa.
