February, 2017

We started off with a special meeting on Feb. 18 with an Entered Apprentice degree.  Our officers did a fine job.  We closed the lodge and opened at 8:00 after some refreshments downstairs.  We went to refreshment and opened a Fellowcraft degree to examine a brother in that degree.  We then went back to the EA lodge and conducted our regular business.  We then heard from Bro. Rodney Epperson from the Ohio Masonic Home about changes in the services provided to Masons, their widows and orphans.  If you need any help from the home, which includes helping you stay in your home, contact the lodge and more information will be provided.  The upcoming one day class was discussed and our lodge will have 2 candidates there to complete their degrees.  On March 11 at 7:00 PM we will be doing a Master Mason degree on a brother.  The Lodge Education Officer has set up an educational night on April 1 at 7:00 PM to hear from a brother from Scotland about Masonry there.  He is said to be an entertaining speaker.  We are also hoping to get a large turnout of our brethren for Goshen lodge's inspection on April 21.  Since this is the last inspection we could keep the traveling award until the next inspection season.  The lodge is experiencing a burst of enthusiasm.  Come join us.
