Masters Message From The East (September 2024)
Brothers Of Friendship 33:
Happy September Brothers and welcome back to labor! A huge Thank You to the 19 brothers who were able to join me on Labor Day for our meeting. If you couldn't make it, I understand and look forward to seeing you back in lodge soon.
In case you missed the Chris Hodaap podcast interview I played in lodge at our May ? meeting,here's the link:

Entitled 'One Man Can Change Freemasonry', Chris makes the point that we all have the power to make changes in our lodge,anyone can have a good idea - how about you? My idea is a forum to vet those ideas with the current worshipful and a few past masters, what do you think? Email me at worshipful.master.f33@gmail.com.
Fraternally
Michael Leser Worshipful Master
