OUR THOUGHT & BIBLE VERSE ETC. FOR THE YEAR BIBLE VERSE 
Ezekiel 33 vs 31
And they come unto thee as the people cometh, and they sit before thee as my people, and they hear thy words but they did not do them: for with their mouth they shew much more love, but their heart goeth after their covetousness.
THOUGHT FOR THE YEAR
Fraternity is a lovely plant, that grows in a garden place, A plant that can fill your life with peace;But whether it blooms depends on you, for the plant is a fragile one. You must plant its root in fertile soil, Of a thousand thoughtful deeds. And warm its leaves with golden light; And must keep it free of distrust and doubt;For distrust and doubt are weeds.
COLOUR OF THE YEAR
GREEN
HYMN FOR THE YEAR
Blest be the Tie that Binds
CHAPTER PRAYER FOR THE YEAR
Dear God, help us as we plan and build for the future; without hope or personal gain, burying all that is selfish within us; that our Chapter may achieve and attain.
