The Order of the Easter Star (OES) is a fraternal organization that brings together men and women to promote moral values, charity, education, and service to others. We are a Fraternal, non-profit, charitable service organization. The Order of the Eastern Star is a Masonic-affiliated organization open to women and men. It is dedicated to charitable work, personal growth, and community service, using lessons from biblical heroines and heroes to teach principles such as love, fidelity, faith hope and charity.
• Service-oriented: OES supports charities, scholarships, youth programs, and community needs.
• Values-based: It teaches ethical living, compassion, and integrity through symbolism and ritual.
• Family-inclusive: It allows men and women to work together in a fraternal setting while serving in support of youth programs for males (DeMolay) and Females (International Order of Rainbow for girls and Jobs’ daughters).
• Community-focused: Members are encouraged to give back locally and beyond.
• Supportive-fellowship: It offers friendship, mutual support, and personal enrichment.
Our Organization was established in 1850. Our Local Chapter was chartered in 1942 and has actively supported our members and significant Community needs for more than 83 years.
