Hello, my Brothers!
Thank you, again, to all who brought their Light to our first Lantern Lodge. What a special evening! It was awesome to sit in Lodge that evening, and I really enjoyed R.W.B. Adam Goldman’s talk on Astrology and Freemasonry. While staring out at the ocean waters and looking up at the stars on my cruise after the meeting, I thought about how ancient Traveling Men applied astronomy to guide their way. And how the knowledge of the paths of the planets led to finding deeper meanings in our daily lives.
As I shared in the Officer’s group chat after our February Communication: we are building something special at St. John’s Lodge No. 11, and I’m blessed to share this moment with you all. Let’s continue to bring our energy and passion to our monthly meetings!
A quick note, please place a hold on your calendar for our Official Visit on Friday, June 28. We will be sharing the Grand Master’s visit with a few other Lodges. I expect the Elected Officers to be in attendance and would be moved to see as many St. John’s Brethren as possible that evening.
Finally, Bro. Chris Ruli will be our speaker at the March Communication. Gavel drops at 7:00 p.m., program and light dinner at 8:00 p.m. Learn about the history of Freemasonry in our nation’s capital through Bro. Ruli's lively storytelling. This program is Open to All and a must attend for those interested in Freemasonry and American history. Don’t forget if you bring a guest — your first drink is on me!
Sincerely and Fraternally,
W.B. Michael Arce
