From the East

Greetings once again Brethren!

There has been a lot going on at Farmers Lodge since the last post. Inspection season is now upon us, and for those who have traveled with us, we have had a chance to see some very fine degree work throughout the district.

We have also been very busy with our own degree work. Brother John Robinson was “Initiated” as an Entered Apprentice on Tuesday, January 20th, and Brother Mike Kirby was “Passed” to the degree of Fellowcraft on the same evening.

In February, Brother Josh Gray was “Raised” to the Sublime Degree of a Master Mason on Tuesday, February 10th, and Brother Michael Kirby was also “Raised” to the Sublime Degree of a Master Mason on Saturday, February 21st.

A very well deserved Thank You goes out to the Tri-County travelers, and also to the Brethren who also showed up to show their support to fill in spots where needed and even to help out on the Lectures! Thank You again Brothers - you know who you are!

I would also like to Thank the Brethren and the Officers of Farmers Lodge, who have taken the time out of their busy schedules and away from their families to continue to show their support, not only for the Lodge at our regular stated meetings, but also for the special meetings for our new Brothers, to help them along their path and giving them the outstanding degree work which they deserve, as others have previously done during your own journey when you started in this Fraternity. I know we have been very busy this year, as well as the previous year, and want you to know how much it is appreciated of your time, as it is one of the most valuable things that one can give..that of time.

Just a couple of other quick notes... Our Annual Inspection is almost upon us, and would like to encourage the Brethren of Farmers Lodge to come and show their support for their Officers, as they have been working diligently to perfect their work in the Fellowcraft Degree. Brethren, if you can only make one meeting during the year, why not come out and support these Officers on this night and pack this little ole’ Lodge with a bunch of “Farmers”. Let’s make it tough for the Senior Deacon and the Candidate to even walk around all of these Brothers!

Our Open House is also quickly approaching, and will be held the following weekend after our inspection on Saturday, March 21st. Please see the page “Open House” link at the bottom or right of the screen for details. If you know of anyone who is interested in joining the fraternity, bring them out and let them gain a little insight into this great Fraternity.

Sincerely & Fraternally,

Adam Wilson - Worshipful Master
