​

The Order of the Eastern Star is the largest fraternal organization in the world to which both men and women may belong. Worldwide, there are over 500,000 members. The organization was created in the United States in the early nineteenth century to allow women to join with their Masonic relatives in promoting the values and charitable purposes that are such an important part of the Masonic fraternity. While the Order of the Eastern Star has evolved over the centuries, it still remains rooted in its charitable endeavors and fraternal fellowship. Palmy Chapter #114, originally located in Palmyra, now in Deerfield will celebrate its 120th Anniversary this coming October.

Our local charitable endeavors includes the Back Door Pantry at the Palmyra United Methodist Church which we have supported for  several years and in 2016 we established a Scholarship Fund for Southeast students choosing to continue their education at the Maplewood Career Center.
