Welcome to the online home for Sphinx Court #65,
Ladies Oriental Shrine of North America in Phoenix, Arizona!
Ladies Oriental Shrine of North America in Phoenix, Arizona!
Ladies Oriental Shrine, N.A. (LOS) was founded on a lark in 1903. As their reputation spread throughout Shrinedom, ladies from other Shrine Temples wished to have a Ladies Shrine Court of their own. LOS became organized in 1914 when the existing three courts created a “Grand Council” under whose auspices we still operate.We now have courts all across these great United States (and one in Canada) whose ladies are committed to helping the Shrine in supporting the greatest philanthropy in the World – the 22 Shriners Hospitals for Children. We pride ourselves on being able to contribute to this great cause. Through El Zaribah Shrine Center in Phoenix, Sphinx Court works to help provide goods, services and monies for medical care, support and research for those children.
The Ladies Oriental Shrine N.A. motto for this year is “Hugs”. This is an acronym for Help the Children, Understand the Mission, Give from the Heart, and Share your Time and Talents. It is truly an honor for Sphinx Court and the whole of the Ladies Oriental Shrine to be part of this great Philanthropy!
