From the West
Brethren
As the
Masonic year in 2007 ends many changes will happen in all
lodges with
the installation of officers, plus the Feast of Saint Johns.
I would like
to encourage the membership to attend and support the
other lodges
during their installation, and meet your brothers from other
lodges.
It is always a nice night out plus very interesting if you have
never seen
it done. If I am elected as Worshipful Master for 2008. I
am planning
an open installation with a dinner courtesy of the ladies of
our OES
Chapter.
I am looking
forward to having dinner with my brothers that evening,
so please
call 609 413 2543 or e-mail me at
Slamer399@yahoo.com and
let me know
if you are planning to attend the dinner, as we need a head
count to
ensure there is a enough food for everyone. Donation is $10 per
person
which is a bargain by today’s standard. Please feel free to bring
your wife,
friends etc. to this event.
I would also
like to thank all of the brethren who have supported the
Master and
me in many of our projects fundraisers etc. to help improve
the lodge,
as I refer to the working tool the trowel that is described in the
1st section
of the Master Mason Degree.

WORSHIPFUL MASTER’S MESSAGE
WB WILLIAM L DORMAN JR.
Brethren
It is the time of the year when we begin thinking
of the spirit of giving, related to the Christmas Holiday. We, as
Masons, should be in the spirit of giving all year long. This is
the way to spread our ideals and goals with all that we come in
touch. How we act, talk and perform in our daily activities is how
others judge Masonry. Let us all look for ways of giving positive
support through out our communities.
I wish you all well during the up coming holidays
and pray for a successful New Year for each of you.
I want to thank all the brethren for your support
through out the past year and am very grateful for you allowing me
to serve as the master of Williamstown Lodge. We have been
successful this year in making improvements to the lodge as well
as getting our selves known in the community. Our Eastern Star
chapter has even stated that the communication between us has
improved. Let's keep up the progress.
To our Master elect, I promise my support and ask
all the brethren to continue their support as we move forward.
To those
of you who have not been out for a while - stop by the lodge and
see the changes - come out to some of the meetings and see how
things are changing.
WB William L. Dorman
Jr. Worshipful Master
