Melchizedek Chapter #15 in 2023
I’m proud to announce that our beloved Melchizedek Chapter No. 15 turns 100 this year. Below is our charter history: Melchizedek Chapter #15 was under dispensation in July 1923 and on December 12, 1923 was recommended for a charter by Most Excellent Grand High Priest John Melontree #13 and approved. The first High Priest was N. T. Romans. Past High Priests as of 1927 were Joseph A. Nickens, Wesley Gary in addition to N.T. Romans. In 1927, the High Priest was Thomas F. Cook, King Robert Anderson and Scribe Edward R. Carter, Treasurer was Charles H. Fauntroy and Secretary was Clarence W. Dorsey.
Let’s gather our members as we celebrate this year.
Dr. Samuel Coleman IV, PHP
