Brethren,
Wow, what a year it has been. This is my penultimate bulletin as Worshipful Master of St. John’s Lodge No. 11 – how has a year gone by so quickly.
Thank you to all the brethren who showed up and performed an absolutely amazing Master Mason Degree. In the seven years that I’ve been with St. John’s Lodge No. 11, I’ve seen such growth and commitment amongst the brethren to be able to perform rituals. I congratulate all of our newly raised Master Masons and welcome them as full members of their Blue Lodge. You have received much light but remember that Freemasonry is an individual journey, one that will reward you for the amount of time and effort you put into understanding and honing your craft.
Thank you to everyone that showed up to the Fall Festival at Homestead Farms and who celebrated an amazing Sunday afternoon at Rockland Farms Winery. I believe what makes our Lodge amazing is doing things both inside the Lodge as well as outside the Lodge and events like this open the opportunity for Brothers to get to know one another and their families.
The November stated communication is going to be a very special event because we will be deciding the 2020 Lodge Leadership team.
It has been a pleasure serving you all from the Ornamental Chair this year. We’ve done a lot of fun things and I hope that you have enjoyed this past year as much as I have.
Sincerely and Fraternally,
Sean Parkhurst
Worshipful Master
