Update to COVID 19 Orient-wide restrictions 04-16-2020

New Supreme 2016

Greetings my Brethren!

I hope all of you are doing well, and your significant others are doing well also.

Here is where I stand on the future with closer of our buildings and meetings. First: We must follow Federal, State, County, and City laws. Second: Our Grand Master has put out an edict on meetings and it must be followed. Third: Common sense.

With these in mind, after June 30th, 2020 every Valley in Oregon, with the approval of the Personal Representative and his advisory group may decide if they will meet, rent, etc. There is always an exception, Portland is the exception in this case; because of the population and also that I live in the Portland area. (Lucky Portland, huh) Our leadership elsewhere knows how things are going in each of their communities, so I am leaving it up to them to make these important decisions.

This is being posted to the Orient Blog-site but your Valley’s should also use methods of communicating with their membership at this time as well.

Thank you for your leadership and God bless you all!
