GC Ofc 908-725-0222 or Gail Naia, RWG Treasurer, RWGTNJ@optonline.net ****************************************************** Do you need the services of a Notary? Patti Rhinesmith, RWG Secretary can help you with that. ************************************************************* Do you shop Amazon.com? Did you know that you can benefit the Eastern Star Charity Foundation when you do, at no additional cost? The next time you plan to shop on Amazon, simply log in as Smile.Amazon.Com. You can then designate the Eastern Star Charity Foundation as the charity you support. You use your existing Amazon account, there are no additional fees, and it's very easy to do! Please spread the word to family and friends, and any businesses who make purchases on Amazon - as long as they designate the Eastern Star Charity Foundation of NJ as the charity they support, the Charity Foundation will receive a small donation from most purchases. Any questions? Please contact Jeannette Wallace, RWAG Conductress. Thank you for your help! ******************************************************* STAR JOURNAL March 2019 edition is on site. Go to HomePage. Top menu/Information/Star Journal ******************************************************* Grand Chapter is seeking interested, qualified candidates to run for Right Worthy Grand Trustee! Due to the change to Grand Chapter Law, there has not been an election for Right Worthy Grand Trustee in two years. The next election will take place at Grand Session in May 2020. We're asking that any interested Sisters make themselves known now to the Right Worthy Grand Secretary, so you may be afforded opportunities to serve on Grand Chapter Committees and get insight into the running of Grand Chapter. This does not obligate you to run - it gives you the chance to learn more and make an informed decision. Any questions, please contact the Grand Chapter Office. Signed Petitions for Right Worthy Grand Trustee will be due March 1, 2020. |

message from Mary Jane Lojewski,
PGM Just a note of thanks to my OES Sisters and Brothers for all your prayers, cards, and visits. All have helped me to recover! The surgery was successful; there are no related or unrelated medical issues. In case you haven’t already heard, my rehab is taking place at our Eastern Star Home. Should you be in the neighborhood, come by and say hello! Now, the only thing left is for me to get stronger and the wonderful staff here will see to that. See you on the road soon. Mary Jane |
