WORSHIPFUL
MASTER’S MESSAGE
WB RYAN C. MORRIS
Brethren
To the brethren I would like to thank
you for electing me and installing me as the Worshipful
Master of our lodge. I promise to spread as much Masonic
light this year in our community as possible.
We
as a country are in some of the worst financial times
most of us have ever experienced. So there are, and
will be, a lot of Brothers, their widows and orphans
in need of our assistance this year. So please not
only keep them in
your prayers but let us go the extra mile. Try to
reach out
not only to our brothers and to the families of those
departed brothers, but to all of those in our community
that are in need. Let us show them Masonic light shines
its brightest to the ones so receiving it when darkness
is
surrounding them. I believe that we, as Master Masons,
have an obligation to help in our community. Help
can
come in many ways, brothers. So I will pose a question
to you, “in what ways can you help?”
