Dear Brothers, I hope this message finds you well. As many of you know, our Brother Chris Bushy is currently serving on active duty overseas. I would like for our lodge to send a care package to let him know that his Brothers at Cosmopolitan Lodge are thinking of him and supporting him while he is away. If you would like to contribute, I have included two links below that outline recommended items to send as well as items that should not be mailed. Please review these before selecting anything for the package.
Brothers who would like to include letters, notes, or small items are encouraged to do so. Personal messages from the lodge will mean a great deal. If you are not currently in Connecticut but would still like to participate, you are welcome to mail your items or letters to me and I will include them in the lodge’s package. My address is: 189 Shagbark Ct, Cheshire, CT 06410 Please make sure all items are received by Wednesday, March 18. We will also be collecting items at lodge that evening before sending the package. Please also keep Brother Chris in your thoughts and prayers while he is serving overseas and away from home. If you have any questions or would like my mailing address to send your items, please feel free to email me directly at josephkfried@gmail.com. Thank you in advance for helping us support our Brother while he is serving our country. Fraternally, Bro. Joe Joseph K. Fried Worshipful Master |

March 31, 2025 Dear Brother, We have exciting news! New Haven Chapter, Order of DeMolay, which has been building fine young men since 1923, is being reactivated by a group of active Masons, many of whom were members of the Order of DeMolay when they were younger. DeMolay, founded in 1919, is for young men ages 12-21. Brotherhood, Service and Leadership are the heart of this organization. We will be holding an Open House event to introduce interested members of the Masonic Family to the Chapter and the new Advisory Council, and especially Chapter “Dad” Daniel Devoe. These dedicated men are experienced Advisors who will be a positive influence in the lives of the young men who join the Chapter. Our Open House will be held at the New Haven Masonic Temple, 285 Whitney Avenue, New Haven on Sunday April 27, 2025, from 2:00 – 5:00 p.m. Refreshments will be served, and we will have several members of the Connecticut State Suite of Officers to talk to any young men that come to the Open House. Please join us for this Open House and bring any young man between the ages of eleven (11) and Nineteen (19) who you think would benefit from membership in DeMolay. We would appreciate you contacting Dad Chris Earle to tell us how many are coming so we can plan refreshments. Dad Earle can be reached at 203-915-1229 or cearle@comcast.net. Please let him know by Friday April 25, 2025. We look forward to seeing you on April 27th at 2:00 p.m. Sincerely, “Dad” Brian Beals Executive Officer |
