February 2025 From the East

Brethren,

As we enter the month of February, I want to take a moment to express my deepest appreciation for each of you. The energy and commitment you bring to our Lodge is what makes us strong, and as your Worshipful Master, I am excited to continue our journey together in the new year.

First, I want to offer my heartfelt congratulations to Vincent Buffolino, Dennis P. Mirante, and Michael Pyzikiewicz, who were initiated as Entered Apprentices  in January. We are proud to welcome them into the ranks of our craft.

• February 26th, we will complete their initiation with the presentation of the historical lecture for the First Degree, which was postponed from the degree. Let us all come together to show our continued support and celebrate their journey in Freemasonry.

• February 12th marks our annual visit from the District Deputy Grand Master, R:.W:. Robert J. Licata. This visit is a significant occasion for our Lodge, providing an opportunity to hear from our District leadership and engage with the broader Masonic community. I strongly encourage all brethren to attend, as your presence will make this event even more meaningful. This visit is a reminder of the greater Masonic family to which we belong, and it’s a time for us to reflect on the state of our Lodge and the progress we’ve made together.

Your attendance, participation, and commitment are what makes our Lodge strong. Let’s continue to work together to ensure that we make the most of the opportunities ahead.

Fraternally,
W:. William Hanson
Worshipful Master
