Announcements

Brethren,

We have had superb attendance at our degree work this year.  It’s great to see everyone coming out to support the candidates and the lodge.  It’s also been great to sit in lodge with some of the “older” members.  Please come back often—we need your wisdom and experience! 
I’d like to close with an excerpt from a little book I’m reading called, “5-15 Minute Talks” by Elbert Bede, P.M., 33°.  This is from a chapter called “What Did You Expect of Freemasonry?

Brethren,

There are a few things that I want to remind you of for the coming months.

We will have a fellowcraft degree Friday, March 19th . Come out and support Brother Bill Driver as he confers his first fellowcraft degree.

Clean-up Saturday will be April 3. We will begin at 8:00 am.

Our spring barbeque will be Saturday, April 17. Your help is always appreciated.

Grand Lodge will be held Thursday and Friday, April 22-23.

We also have two petitions for EA degrees.

Fraternally yours,
John Bridwell, W.M

Brethren,

We had a great turnout for the EA degree on 1-22-10. Please join me in welcoming our new EA’S, Taylor Strickland, David Lykins, and Lloyd Mullinax.

I’d like to thank the WM for allowing me to confer this degree. It was my first time and it was an honor to do it. I’d also like to thank the officers for the good work and patience as we all learned during practices. Also thank you to Brother Leo Eubanks for his usual excellent lecture.

Brethren,

First I want to think all for allowing me the privilege to serve this year as Master of Acacia Lodge.

There are many things to accomplish during the year and that means I will need much help. I know that together we can serve to better our lodge. That being said, I need to know the thoughts and concerns of each of you. I have included my phone numbers and e-mail address as well as my home address [in the sprig]. Let me hear from you. Your suggestions are needed and wanted.

Brethren

I would like to thank you for showing me your confidence by electing me as Senior Warden. I am honored to serve this lodge and will do my best to serve you my brethren. We have a good line of officers this year, and I encourage you to come and fellowship with us.

Sincerely & Fraternally,William A. Driver, SW

Brethren,

I'd like to thank you for the confidence you have shown by electing me as your Junior Warden. I'm honored and will do my best to serve you.

We are starting 2010 off with a bang!! As shown on the Trestleboard, we have three candidates set to receive the EA° on Friday, January 22nd. Brethren, we can best demonstrate your love of masonry and our Brothers to these candidates by honoring them with your presence as they take this first step in Masonry. It will also be my first time in the East and I too would be honored with your presence.
