Having Had the priveledge of serving in the army, attached to the Austrialian First Army and working out of Port Darwin 1944-46 I spent a few weeks in Brisbane which I enjoyed very much. I have been back to Australia twice not with my wife and I would very much like to return once more while I can still travel. Should this happy day occur, be assured I will give a priority to visiting a Brisbane District Chapter. Your web page is extremely well done. Congratulations.

I bring greeting to all of the OES members in Australia from Nashville, Tennessee "Music City U.S.A." My husband and I are members of Rock City Chapter No. 2 in Nashville. I am a past grand officer and served as Grand Martha in 1991 and served a 3-year term as District Instructor. I have been a member for 39 years and have many wonderful experiences. I also served 13 years as Mother Advisor for our Rainbow Assembly. In Tennessee, the Worthy Grand Matron appoints a total of 10 officers for her year and selects 1 from her chapter and the Worthy Grand Patron selects 1 from his chapter. Offices appointed are Chaplain thru Sentinel. All other offices are elected by the state membership. We only have women Grand Representatives but men and women can be appointed as Grand Instructors. It is very interesting to learn how other Grand Jurisdictions are governed. If anyone comes to Nashville, we will be very happy to give you a tour. Fraternal love

I'm a journalist interested in the history of Freemasons and the Order of the Eastern Star and to why, in the past there has been so much secrecy about the actions you've done to benefit the community. In my region I come across these organisations often and they rarely want their names or group mentioned. If you could fill me in on a few things it would be greatly appreciated.

Lovely to visit your website! Got quite a surprise to see a photograph with me in it there! It's good to see the Order represented on the Net at last. Hopefully, it will interest a lot of people and we shall have an influx of new members. Star Love, Isabel McLelland, Most Worthy Grand Matron.

I am currently the Grand Representative of Australia in New Hampshire. I enjoyed my stay in Australia in June. We (Jean Van Stelten,Grand Representative of Australia in New Hampshire and a PM of Ruth Chapter #16 in New Hampshire; Jean E. Van Stelten,PM of Ruth Chapter #16 in New Hampshire; Jane J. Sims, PM of Ruth Chapter #16 in Manchester, New Hampshire, Associate Grand Conductress of New Hampshire and one who served as Grand Representative of Australia in New Hampshire; and Dorothy Lempenau, a member of Ruth Chapter #16 in Manchester, New Hampshire) visted your General Grand Chapter in Hobart meeting many of your members and members from the USA. We also toured several areas of your Country. It was a great visit, one we will treasure forever. We hope to return in the future. I also enjoy writing to Mary Newman who is the Grand Representative of New Hampshire in Australia and look forward to learning more about Country and your OES ways.

I am a grand-daughter of Eric Deecke, a Freemason who passed away on 25th August, 2001. At Pa's funeral, I learned a great deal of the charitable acts performed by members of Freemasory and its associated societies. Fellow freemasons testified to my Grandfathers generosity and charity toward others. I was always aware that Pa was actively involved with his Lodge, but I had never given much thought to it. Now that my Pa has gone, I am hoping to carry on his fine example by hopefully joining the Order of the Eastern Star one day. I would like to encourage all Grandchildren of Masons to look at the traditions and ask themselves " How can I live up to this example?"
