Most Rainbow Assemblies meet twice a month. Under the direction of the Worthy Advisor (a girl elected to serve as the assembly leader for a six-month period), all the girls in the Assembly attend to business and perform memorized ceremonies, including opening, closing and initiation. The girls themselves are responsible for the financial management, correspondence and organization of their Assembly, with guidance from adult advisors. Assembly activities are always chaperoned by responsible adults.

A complete corps of officers in an Assembly consists of 18 girls – the top 5 line officers are elected by the girls in the Assembly, and the remaining 13 officers are appointed by the Worthy Advisor. Members are encouraged to accept the responsibility of being an officer. Any member may accept chairmanship of an event or committee, learning to organize and work with peers to a successful conclusion.

In addition to the twice-monthly meetings at her local Assembly, there are statewide meetings, held annually and called “Grand Assembly”, and international meetings, held every two years and called “Supreme Assembly”.

At Grand Assembly, Grand Officers exemplify Rainbow ceremonies in beautiful form. Newly-appointed Grand Officers, who will serve for the following year, are revealed to the anticipation and excitement of all. State scholarships are awarded for outstanding service and scholastic endeavors. Many awards are presented throughout Grand Assembly sessions for exceptional Rainbow participation.

At Supreme Assembly, Rainbow girls from all over the world come bringing souvenirs from their native countries and states to exchange with other members. The real highlight of the sessions is the model exemplification of the Ritual, which is put on by a team of girls composed of Grand Worthy Advisors of the various states. These girls are perfectly trained and are the most outstanding girls of the Rainbow world.

Who can Attend a Rainbow Meeting?

Active and Majority Rainbow girls in good standing may attend any Rainbow meeting or function. As well, any member of the Masons, Eastern Star, White Shrine of Jerusalem, or Amaranth in good standing, and any parent, grandparent or legal guardian of an active or majority Rainbow Girl are also welcome to attend. Rainbow Parents are always invited and encouraged to attend all meetings and events. Many Rainbow parents feel their participation has provided an opportunity to establish a unique relationship with their daughters and her Rainbow friends.
