My Brothers,

I hope you all had a great summer and I welcome you all back to labor!

Our first Stated Communication of the month on Friday, September 4 will be our annual Roll Call dinner and meeting where Brothers will be recognized for various years of Masonic service. This is also an important meeting because it is our first meeting back to labor after the summer hiatus and provides an opportunity for all of us to rededicate ourselves to supporting the Lodge.

There are only four months left in the year, but there is still much work to be done. As Worshipful Master, I can set the Craft to work, but the Lodge always needs dedicated craftsmen to engage in our labors. Even if you have not been to Lodge in quite some time, I again appeal to you to support your Lodge and be present at Roll Call!

This month we will also have another class of candidates to receive the Entered Apprentice Degree on Friday, September 18. I strongly encourage you to attend this Degree to support these candidates in their first step in Masonry. One of my best memories from my time in Masonry was seeing all of the Brothers present when I was first initiated into the Fraternity and I hope that you help to make this a truly memorable event for these candidates as well.

I hope to see you soon.

Fraternally,

Jeffrey J. Scepanski

Worshipful Master
