From The East

My Brothers;

The Fellow  Craft Degree was once again, the work of the evening at our last communication which was conferred on three brothers. It was a beauty to behold the presence of twelve brothers aspiring to reach the goal of very soon becoming a Master Mason.

 At our upcoming communication, we will receive the DDGM of the Fourth Manhattan District – RW Sean Alfred Brown who will be bringing to his own lodge the Grand Master’s message.

I am again extending to all brothers who participated in last evening’s work  my sincere thanks for a job well done..RW Sean A. Brown again sat in the east.
I must make special mention of RW Arthur P. Fisch who has throughout this exercise of the conferral of degrees these past Three months, has played a very important role by being able to work different stations in each degree conferral.

On this occasion, we had the Middle Chamber Lecture superbly rendered by VW Noel W. Kirton of Allied Lodge #1170. It was a spectacular rendition of the work. Sincere thanks is again extended to VW Noel Kirton.

 We are behind in our scheduled plan of degrees but are making adequate adjustments to stick to our promised plan of other Lodge Activities for the New Year.

 Many thanks to the WM., Officers and Brothers of St. Cecile Lodge#568 in facilitating us on the occasion of their celebration of their Patron’s Day – St. Cecile, November 22nd, in which instance they conferred the Master Mason Degree on nine of our brothers. Your continued support in attending the final schedule of degree work for 2008 will be greatly appreciated.

Be reminded of our trip to “The Crossings.”Your support will be greatly appreciated.
