Master’s Message – January 2023

January 7, 2023John QuirozFrom the East

Brethren,

A new year brings much excitement and thoughts of new beginnings. Before we let 2022 pass, I thank the officers and members for their dedication to the Masonic Fraternity. Our lodges can’t survive without strong leadership and the support from all its members. We need to have all our members participate in making our lodge healthy, strong and continue to grow.

Our next Stated communication and dinner will be Wednesday January 11th. We have a lot to get accomplished – Installations of our Tyler, WB Lynn Foley, our JD, WB James Hosmer and our Treasurer WB Larry Harmon. We will have assignments of Committees and presentation of our Budget.

As for 2023, we will focus on adding events and activities for all our members and families.

Our Officers and members will be very busy this year as we strive to obtain the Grand Master’s Achievement Award, The Basic Lodge of Proficiency, finish the Torchlight Program, several Lodge Visitations and hopefully receiving a Traveling Gavel or two.

On our meeting nights where we ask the ladies to be present, we will institute a Ladies program.

Upcoming Activities:

  • Jan 11th – Stated meeting, 6:30pm Dinner, Meeting at 7:30pm
  • Jan 18th – Torchlight Program, 6:00pm. Contact WB Jim Akers if you’re new to this program and are wanting to join – jakers2665@gmail.com
  • Jan 25th – Building Board Meeting, 7:00pm. All are welcome

Words from Famous Freemasons

It has not been my fortune to know very much of Freemasonry, but I have had the great fortune to know many Freemasons and have been able in that way to judge the tree by its fruit. I know of your high ideals. I have seen that you hold your meetings in the presence of the open Bible, and I know that men who observe that formality have high sentiments of citizenship, of worth, and character. That is the strength of our Commonwealth and nation.

— Calvin Coolidge
