Message from the Worshipful Master

Brethren,

We are now heading into the month of May and we still have work in the quarry to do. We have our All You Can Eat Breakfast coming up.

The Pitman Craft Show on the 21st of May, where we do the parking, is one of our best fundraisers.

We are possibly having a yard sale on the 4^th of June at the lodge; this will be a part of Pitman garage Sale day. Then our breakfast on June 11^th and before we know it, it's chicken barbecue time. If you can Brothers, please try to attend a regular business meeting so all are aware of upcoming events and remember- participation is key.

If any brother knows a good candidate for Masonry please try to get them to join our fraternity. It is always good to have more brethren as our ranks are thinning.

Masonic Wages

“Masonic labor is purely a labor of love. He who seeks to draw Masonic wages in gold or silver will be disappointed. The wages of a Mason are earned and paid in their dealings with one another, sympathy begets sympathy, kindness begets kindness, helpfulness begets helpfulness and these are the wages of a mason.”

Benjamin Franklin, Grandmaster of Pennsylvania 1790.

Fraternal Greetings

Brian M Kane

Attest: Michael Paris, Secretary
