Waco, Texas – Arabia Shriners were honored to be represented at the 161st Grand Annual Communication of the Grand Lodge of Texas, where Past Potentate Ben LaBlanc and Treasurer Chris Staudt had the distinct privilege of presenting The LEAH’s Project to the Grand West. Held in Waco, the Annual Communication gathered Masonic leadership and brethren from across the state of Texas to conduct the official business of the Grand Lodge, celebrate achievements, and strengthen the bonds of Texas Masonry. During the session, LaBlanc and Staudt shared the mission, vision, and impact of The LEAH’s Project — a charitable initiative dedicated to making a meaningful difference in the lives of those it serves. Their presentation highlighted the heart behind the project, its community outreach efforts, and the collaborative spirit that continues to unite Masons and Shriners in service. The opportunity to address the Grand West underscores the strong and enduring relationship between the Grand Lodge of Texas and the Shrine fraternity. It also reflects Arabia Shriners’ continued commitment to philanthropy, partnership, and advancing causes that embody the principles of brotherly love, relief, and truth.
