My Brothers, we begin the last third of the year with a reminder that on Sept 20th, we have a very important vote – to reschedule our election night from December 8th to December 1st, so that our Ladies of the Oriental Shrine can have our lodge room for their official visit.  Our Grand Master said that Masons are the key to the whole Masonic Family.  We show the strength of our fraternity by proving that we can help – this is a time of turbulence and change, and the mighty oak that stands rigid in the wind is blown over, while the reed that acknowledges the wind and bends is the one that survives the storm.

We are sure to have busy month in September, with all three degrees at some point.  Come out on Tuesday nights to practice degree work, and stretch yourself.  

Fraternally,

Bill Valentino, Worshipful Master
