Ladies of the Household,

Having had elections at our last Session on March 2nd, I am humbly grateful and proud that I am writing this as your Nydia Temple No. 4’s Queen-Elect.  I personally invite each of you to join me and the officers at the formal open Installation of Officers on Sunday, March 20, 2022 at 2:00 p.m. at the Al Kader Shrine Center in Wilsonville. Following the installation, we will be treated to performances by all three of our units, and then a reception with time to visit with friends we have not seen in a very long time.

My congratulations go to Queen Gail Mitchell Martin as her year is concluding. Queen Gail’s reign has been marked with the difficulties experienced during a pandemic year, however, she went forward with grace, dignity and kindness. When Stated Sessions occurred while we were all staying home, she had Zoom sessions. When we were able to meet again, we did so in a safe manner – socially distanced and masked! As much as possible, Official Queen’s Visits to Nydia Temple clubs were held, and we had fun! Thank you, Queen Gail, for your unwavering optimism and loyalty to the members of Nydia Temple.

I’m so proud of our officers serving this upcoming year; please come to our installation to help support and thank them!

Nydia Love, Pr. Royal Nancy Coddington
