Hello Brothers,
We had a great time at our 1st Degree on January 21st. Welcome brother James Shoemaker. This is the beginning of your journey in Masonic life. This is the first of 3 Degrees with witch you have the opportunity to enjoy. We had a great time and it was nice to see sideliners. We also had a double 2nd Degree on February 2. It enriches our hearts to see our brothers on there way to becoming a Master Mason. I want to thank the officers for the hard work and also John Nelson PM for giving a talk after both Degrees, very enlightening. If you want to know more about the Degrees, Not just the ritual but the meanings behind them and many more details about the history. Come join us.
Consider the hammer.
A good one doesn’t lose its head and fly off the handle. It finds the point and drives it home. It looks on the other side and clinches the matter. Occasionally it makes mistakes, but it rectifies them. It keeps pounding away until the job is done. It is the only knocker in the world that does constructive work. –Cheer Magazine, Does this make you think about Masonry? How we help each other and how we help our families do constructive work?
There are sources of happiness that are quite independent of money. A millionaire does not enjoy a book more than a poor man. Plain food tastes as good to a worker who has earned his dinner as do the choicest delicacies to the man whose appetite is jaded from an unnatural diet. The outdoors are as beautiful to a girl who does factory work as to the wife of a factory owner, and the member of the sandlot ball team gets as much fun out of his sport as does a polo player. To understand such things is wisdom. –The Neighbor, The great thing about brotherhood is we share. Each one of us gets something out if it. It doesn’t have to be the same thing because we all feel something a bit different and Masonry means different things to each of us and yet we are brothers who share the same brotherly love. Do you think such things are wisdom, Think about it? I do, how about you?
Be well Brethren take care and God bless
Don Nelson, W.M.
