FW: [MR] Coral Branch/Bright Leaf question

[BATCOK at aol.com]

Due to problems with the desired name, Bright Leaf is not usable.  Their 
Majesties have selected another name for the AoA Service Order, Coral Branch.  
This name is being submitted to the Laurel Herald for approval and should be used 
in place of Bright Leaf from this moment forward.

Any who have received the AoA Service Order under the previous name have not 
lost the recognition and are still members of the AoA Service Order.  This is 
similar to the process involved when the Existing Kingdom AoA Orders were 
elevated to GoA level, nobody was kicked out and all members of those Orders in 
the Kingdom at the time of elevation had their statuses adjusted accordingly.

The matter of scrolls is a slightly different issue, and will fall under the 
final authority of the Clerk Signet.  However, my recommendation would be that 
completed scrolls stand as completed.  If someone has not received a scroll 
for the AoA Service Order, that scroll be completed under the new name - Coral 
Branch.  Should someone who possesses a completed Bright Leaf scroll 
commission a new scroll for the renamed AoA Service Order, I am sure the Clerk Signet 
would be inclined to assist that person in obtaining the signatures of the 
bestowing Royalty.
