Session:
"Starlight Garden of Dreams"

Theme:
If we can dream of a better tomorrow, we can create a better tomorrow.

Aim:
To rekindle the joy and enthusiasm of our Eastern Star Family and to use our individual and creative talents to increase membership.

Motto:
When you find a dream inside your heart, don't ever let it go...for dreams are the tiny seeds from which tomorrows grow.

WGM's Scripture:
"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in Heaven."  Matthew 5:16

Prayer:  Prayer of St. Francis
Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace;
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light; and
Where there is sadness, joy...
For it is in the giving that we receive...

WGP's Scripture:
Then I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, "Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?"
