From the West - January

Brethren,

It’s the beginning of a New Year, 2026. That means a fresh start for all we do as a Fellowship and a Lodge.

Our plans for the New Year include an expanded social schedule introducing Social Trips. What kind of trips you may ask, how about a trip to a very special museum in Orlando (make sure your phone or camera has space for a lot of pictures), a trip that includes your spouse with transportation provided! Now I don’t want to get ahead of myself but our lodge plans on one of these trips per quarter and further details will be forth coming, but our first trip will take place in mid-March. We will also be expanding on providing guest speakers at our stated meetings, on subjects that affect us both as Masons as well as citizens of our local communities and state. We will be polling the brothers of our lodge to provide topics and recommended speakers they feel would be of interest and benefit to the craft.

We are working to make the coming year both more interesting and fulfilling for all members and look forward to greeting you at the door for our first Stated meeting on Monday January 12th, 2026. Lunch starts serving at 12:30 pm sharp and it should be a good one.

PS: If you are in need of a ride please contact any one of your elected officers and we will get you a ride in.   

Fraternally,

Carl Chew, Senior Warden (Pro-tem)
