From the East
| My
Brother, We have again had a successful month, the light of Free Masonry continues to faithfully shine upon our lodge. We had twelve members and guest attend the Grand Masters Reception, and a great time was had by all. MWB Thomas E. Reynolds delivered a very enlightening speech that covered his year as grand master to the brethren, we also took part in the Avon/Miami Blood Drive, thanks to all who participated in this worthwhile cause. We had a nice visit with Ivanhoe Chapter on the 25th of April. They were all excited that we came out and look forward to seeing us again in the future. We also had our new membership night in conjunction with Mariemont Lodge. My was this a great evening, we started it off with a nice meal, and followed it up with a terrific desert, and then retired into the lodge. We acknowledged David Fine, the Worshipful Master of Mariemont Lodge, and our distinguished guests that were present, and then turned the lodge over to our Lodge Education Officer, WB Michael Retherford, who along with our visiting DEO WB Richard Fey, put on a fantastic educational program. We then signed their aprons and Bible's, and opened the floor briefly for questions and answers. We finished by giving the candidates their dues cards.
We then closed the lodge and joined the ladies and guest out in the dining room, who were
receiving an Eastern Star program, from Dorothy Woods. The evening wrapped up about 9:00
pm. In
closing, I would like to take a moment to thank Bro. John Phelps, Bro. Bill Whittington,
WB Mike Retherford, WB Richard Fey, and last but surely not least Dorothy Woods, because
without them, this evening would not have been possible. Remember Brethren RUN FREE! RalphRalph E. McLemore Jr. Worshipful Master 2001 master@linwoodlodge.org Don't forget, this website was awarded 1st PLACE! as the |
