Web Master's Notes



The Supreme Herald Article Submission Deadline has changed. Articles to the Supreme Herald are now due to Caroline McCullon, Editor, by the 15th of May, August, November, and February. Please get your articles in Early.

Hello fellow Sojourners,

Hey everyone, Mom, Supreme and I have arrived in Joplin and I will be updating photos and news as often as I can. Actually, I will be posting the photos, Supreme will be posting the news on his page (click the link below). We will be working as often as possible to keep those of you who could not come up on all the news

I am getting things ready for the Installation of Officers in all the Shrines in the Country and for Supreme Session. If you are an incoming WHP (like me) congratulations on your election and I hope your installation is a fun as mine is. If you have pictures taken and would like them posted on the Web page, just send them to me and let me know who is in them. I will be posting them in the "Scenes from the Country" section.

I am also going to be switching the state directories in the upcoming weeks based on the Supreme Shrine Directory for 2007-2008. If you are not listed as NP and AWOS, or you are not going on, please let me know. I would love to have this information as accurate as possible.


In Shrine Love,
Lori Anna, PWHP
