From the East
We have seen a great installation on the 7th of January. My personal thanks to W.B. Ross Laver and Past Grand Master Joe Suttles. I cannot imagine a more inspirational approach to this year.
“Forward” is the creed and we must move that direction with the surefootedness of pre-determined success. There are many changes afoot however, we must exercise the changes with due diligence and respect for the customs of our Lodge.
I ask for your patience as we will need some time to work our degree team up to the excellence our candidates deserve. With so many degrees to come this year, assistance will be needed. Any brother wishing to be on a degree team will please let me know.
For a token this year, I choose a coin for its indelibility. It will be given to those who serve the lodge as “wages” for services to the brethren. I have written on one side Integrity and Justice, and on the other side Peace and Harmony. They are both sides of the same coin. Without one, there cannot exist the other. The trowel is from the Master’s degree. It reminds us that as we are all different shaped stones, Masonry is the cement that binds us and the trowel is the implement to spread that cement. Together as different stones, joined by the cement of Masonry we are stronger than just any individual stone or any lump of cement. And the eye, surrounded by light, reminds us that all our actions are visible to the architect as we travel toward the light.
