Brethren,

Greetings to all my Brothers.

I would like to thank all the New Brothers for your participation in the lodge business and work. It has been my experience that the more you put in the more you get out. There is always help if you ask, if I can help you with anything just ask. The craft can take you places you never imagined you could go.

Thank you for Remembering Your Lodge!

Fraternally,

W⸫ William Sexton, PM
Treasurer

Brethren,

If any of your friends or associates have an interest in becoming a Mason, give them a petition and encourage them to submit it.

Voluntary contributions:

Please remember the $7.30 for the Masonic Home.  The Endowment Fund is the L.Y.P.M.G.S. donation, and the $5.00 building fund are both voluntary contributions. So, if you can spare it, then please do so.  Also, all Perpetual Members, your donations for the voluntary contributions are greatly appreciated as well.

Thank you for Remembering Your Lodge!

Fraternally,

W⸫ Tom Sharp, PM

Be careful this winter, and don’t forget to contribute to our Masonic charities.

May we all be remembered as builders!

Brethren,

Looking forward to a happy and prosperous New Year!  Our Lodge’s finances are in order and we do not anticipate any hardship.  As a reminder, any Brother who has not yet paid his dues please get that check in the mail!

Brethren,

Masons are known as moral builders. As the operative Mason spreads the cement to bind the stone, speculative Masons spread brotherly love, relief, and truth to bind men morally and spiritually. The operative builder builds for a century and the speculative builder builds for eternity. In this sense “The Builder” is the most Noble title that can be bestowed on a Mason. – William R. Fischer

May we all be remembered as builders!

Brethren,

I would like to express my gratitude to the great majority of you who have paid your 2017 dues. For the few who haven’t, please get that check in the mail. Better yet, come to Lodge Tuesday night and hand it to me. It would be an honor to see you!

Hope to see everyone in Lodge!
