 A MESSAGE FROM THE EAST

April 2024

Brethren, 


Brothers, We have had a rapid start to 2024 with degree work, petitions and brotherhood.  We have more degree work this month as well as education.  Our Senior Warden James Villhauer is scheduling lodge visitations. Be sure to attend those visits as we return to more cross lodge visitations. 


We will be working on several charitable missions announcing soon so watch for those. We are a fraternity built on ctarity and we are expanding our community support.


Be sure to WELCOME the new brothers and if you would like to assist in some of the degree work, dinners and or serving please reach out to any of the lodge officers.


We have several line openings to fill, if you are a MM and desire to participate in line operations, please reach out to me.

masonic

The Masonic Fraternity is one of the oldest men's premier fraternities  that is steeped in history. What started as "operative masons" building the majestic edifices of Europe and the mason's guilds of the middle ages has evolved into one of "speculative masonry" where we build better men through moral, ethical and social responsibility and the support of charity to others. Masons and Freemasonry has played important parts through history, are you the next piece of the puzzle in history ?
