A Special Message from the

Sovereign Grand Inspector General
Brethren,
I am delighted to have you visit our website. The Scottish Rite Orient of West Virginia exists to further the mission of the Ancient & Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, Southern Jurisdiction which is “to improve its members and enhance the communities in which they live by teaching and emulating the principles of Brotherly Love, Tolerance, Charity, and Truth, while actively embracing high social, moral, and spiritual values, including fellowship, compassion, and dedication to God, family, and country”. We take this mission seriously and put it into practice with the membership of our Valleys and active support of our charities.
We have organized this site to provide information about our membership, the Valleys of the Orient of West Virginia, our charities, leadership team, and current events. If you are unable to find what you are looking for please feel free to email any of the contacts on the site and I assure you they will quickly respond to your questions. Also, if you are a Mason interested in improving yourself in Masonry and contributing to the mission of Scottish Rite, please download a petition, as we would love to have you as a member.
Sincerely & Fraternally,
H. Jackson “Jack” Yost, 33°
