The Encampment branch of IOOF aims to further the work of Odd Fellowship and impart the principles of Faith, Hope, and Charity. In the United States and Canada, membership in the Encampment is open for men and women holding the third degree in the Odd Fellows Lodge. Traditionally, however, the Ladies Encampment Auxiliary (L.E.A.), was formed for women who are members of a Rebekah Lodge in good standing.

Magnolia Rebekah Lodge #55 is a local chapter of the Rebekahs, also known as the International Association of Rebekah Assemblies (IARA), an international service-oriented organization and a branch of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. We were initially designed as the female auxiliary of the IOOF but now allow both female and male members. Please contact us for more information or if you would like to become a member.
