June 6th, 2026, Pasco Commandery #21 created 5 new Sir Knights 2 members of Pasco No. 21 and 3 members of De Molai No. 6. Congratulations to all the new Sir Knights. I want thank all those who participated in the Orders everyone is vital to making the presentation of the orders meaningful. Becoming a Knight Templar is more than another degree it is solemn ceremony that solidifies and individuals' commitment to the Orders principles and binds you to all the individuals worldwide that have taken the vow.

2025 is behind us and we thank the Companions of the Tri-Cities York Rite Bodies for your support during this year. On behalf of the three of us Thank You companions for your support. We had many travels and attended many events throughout the Northwest. This has truly been a unique and amazing year as we three served as Grand Body heads not only are we members of the Tri-Cities York Rite bodies, but we are members of the same Lodge, Benton Lodge 277. This is unique in itself and quite special. We could not have done it without the support of many great people throughout Washington State, to many to name here, but Thank You All.

The 2026 DeMolay Conclave in Pasco opening session. I was privileged to attend this event with many good friends. The York Rite Grand body heads represented and I also got to represent Rabi Peifer for Red Cross of Washington. It was a great to spend time with the young men from DeMolay and see what these bright young men of Washington DeMolay have done, I wish them well this coming year. I hope the rest of the conclave is just as fun, more pictures can be seen at the attached link. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1LZPjFwNmq/
