On April 29, Hampton Assembly attended and helped at the Fox Hill Central United Methodist Church Spring Festival. We had a booth set up where we talked to several people about what Rainbow means to us. We also had a craft table. We made butterflies and spring fences. When we had some down time at the festival, we played with Dad Mike’s pug, Louie! He became our Hampton mascot.

It was a wonderful time to spend with 5 of our girls and a prospect before we headed up to MCHQWA Ball!

Service Project to help DeMolay in Alexandria, VA

April 15, 2017 – On Saturday morning, we helped to set up benches and chairs at the George Washington Masonic National Memorial for their Easter Sunday service.  We arrived shortly after 9am and we brought Joella, Ashley, and Zoe in our car.  There were so many people helping that we finished in about 50 minutes which they said was a record.  From our Assembly, we had Vanessa, Joella, Zoey, Batu, M’Balu, Ashley, Zoe, and me. Our adults were Mom Paula, Dad Wyatt, Mom Jean, Mom Erin, and Mom Louisa. Once we were done, we got a large group picture and we were able to see the gift shop since it was open after the setup was complete.  

This was a fun experience since we got to see so many people from Northern Virginia help in a common cause.

On Saturday, April 15, Manassas Assembly assisted our DeMolay Brothers in setting up benches and chairs at the Masonic Temple for the Easter Sunrise Service the next day. It was a lot of fun with laughter and jokes. It was great to be able to help our Prince William Chapter brothers and the other Demolay in the area. We started at 9:00 and by 10:00, we were done. Many of the DeMolay adults said that with so many of us there it went by quickly. After we were finished, Manassas Assembly and Prince William Chapter went out together for lunch.

I hope we do this again next year!

Monitor Lodge held their usual breakfast for the community on February 4th. Hampton is always ready to make (and eat) breakfast! We made tater tots, eggs, bacon, sausage, gravy, biscuits, and apples. There was a big turnout and lots of friendly faces. I met little girls, older men, and everyone in between! It’s always so nice to see people eating with their family and chatting with friends. I’m truly blessed to be a part of Hampton Assembly so that I can be a part of something bigger than myself: a community.
