 Winston No. 167 Grand Lodge Of North Carolina, A.F. & A.M. |
Good afternoon, Brothers, I hope this finds you well. I am pleased to inform those who were unable to join us this past Monday during our stated communication, we had the pleasure to be joined by WB Mike Daniels for our Masonic Education on the Symbology of the Craft and then to have Entered Apprentice Chris Stevenson return his EA catechism satisfactorily. As the Officers have began to plan the next steps to assist him in his journey through Masonry, Chris Stevenson and Winston Lodge have been graciously extended an offer to join Enterprise Lodge #752 who have already planned and are prepared to put on the Fellow Craft Degree. This degree will take place on March 17th, 2025, at 7:00 pm (no meal). I strongly encourage each of you to assess the length of your cable tow and if able, attend and support our Brother in this next step of his Masonic journey and to assist Enterprise in any stations or roles that are needed. If you have any questions please let us know. As always may the Grand Architect of the Universe continue to guide and watch over you as He lays out the plans on His trestle board. Sincerely and Fraternally, Mark Wilson Master |

| The attached hymn in PDF format appears in the Moravian hymnal, as well as in other hymnals. I hope that you will open the attachment. When you open the attachment, you will notice that there are 5 lines at the top and 5 lines at the bottom. At the left side, those groups of 5 lines are connected with a line. As the music progresses, you'll see that there are oval-shaped spots on or between the lines. Because the printed music represents the 4-part harmony, it shows these oval-shaped spots (called notes) are vertically placed (as in a column). That means that the 4-part harmony represents soprano, alto, tenor, and bass (going from top to bottom). The top note (the soprano) is usually referred to as "the tune" and it's what we generally sing. You'll also notice that every time there is a new column on the lines, there is a word or syllable associated with the notes. The syllables are divided by hyphens and that's how you know to change notes when you sing. I'm sure all of you have seen this as you've openedChildrenoftheheavenlyking.pdf a hymnbook in church. I hope this presentation is useful to you. Morgan L. Williams, secretary Winston Lodge #167 |
