a message from the worthy grand matron

Welcome!

On behalf of Eureka Grand Chapter, Order of the Eastern Star, State of IL, Prince Hall Affiliation,  we welcome you to our website!

The stated purpose of the Order of the Eastern Star is charity, truth, and loving-kindness. Therefore, the Worthy Grand Patron and I are initiating several charitable and community events. We acknowledge that we cannot accomplish this alone; we rely on each of you for assistance and support. Together, let's proudly proclaim, Psalm 133:1, 'Behold how good and pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity.' Let us be guided by the wisdom of Colossians 3:14, reminding us to prioritize charity above all else, for it is the bond of perfection.

We must let our light shine so that others may witness our good work and be inspired to join our organization. By putting God first, we can achieve success and use our blessings to benefit others. Our organization stands for purpose and service. Together, we embrace the challenge ahead of us and strive for greatness.

This administration is committed to uplifting, motivating, and propelling the organization forward. We embark on a journey to promote love, inspire, and demonstrate benevolence within our organization and the wider community. Eureka Grand Chapter's achievement hinges on everyone's collaborative efforts.
