Brethren, once again it was great to see so many members and other Brothers at the stated this past month. We passed three Brethren to FC on July 22 and conducted a Master Masons degree on August 7, 2008; congratulations to our most recent Master Mason Brother Barrett McHenry.

Sixteen members also traveled to St. Tammany’s lodge on July 21st and obtained the traveling gavel. I thank all of you for your support. It couldn’t happen with out your dedication.

September 9, 2008 will be Past Masters Night, please come out and enjoy the fun. Don’t forget the three day school September 15th thru 17th at Bremond Lodge.

 Poquoson Lodge has all positions in the first section of the Master Masons. Please get with Worshipful Gene Ferguson our LIW and help us out.

 The one day conferral is being held at the Scottish Rite August 16, 2008 at 7:00AM, please come out and support us. We need at least six people, more would be great.

We will be discussing the possibility of selling bonds so we can have enough money to install the parking lot. If it passes, we will sell bonds directly after the meeting on Aug. 12th.

I want to apologize for being late with the news letter and as always, I appreciate the support that everyone has provided this year. If you have any suggestions or comments please do not hesitate to contact me.

 

 

 

May the God of peace and love delight to dwell with and bless you.
